In a shocking turn of events, Olusola Lawanson Adeeko, a 37-year-old Nigerian citizen and former employee of Price Waterhouse Coopers (PwC), is now the subject of an international manhunt following allegations of orchestrating a sophisticated fraud scheme. Adeeko, a 2011 graduate of the University of Lagos, Akoka, is accused of convincing unsuspecting acquaintances to purchase dollars through designated bureau de change, amassing a staggering sum exceeding $20 million equivalent in a period spanning from June 1st to June 23, 2022.
The funds were reportedly directed to specified accounts, with additional transactions occurring through accounts associated with “THE FLEET SUPPORT GROUP,” where her brother-in-law and partner, Ladipo Ajayi, and two siblings serve as directors. Shockingly, on June 24, 2022, Adeeko absconded with her six-year-old daughter and the ill-gotten gains, fleeing to the United States via Delta Airlines.
Social media links to Adeeko have since been deactivated, leaving authorities and the victims in the dark. The family, including her brother-in-law partner Ladipo Ajayi, express ignorance of her actions, pleading for assistance in locating the alleged perpetrator. Despite familial claims of innocence, an international search has been activated to apprehend Adeeko, with her last known sighting at Heathrow Airport in London.
A desperate plea for assistance has been issued to the public to help unveil the whereabouts of this alleged fraudster. Adeeko’s family details, including addresses and workplace locations, have been disclosed to aid in the investigation. Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward, emphasizing that stolen money cannot shield Adeeko from the consequences of her actions.
Adeeko’s last known contact details include the email address olusola.lawanson@gmail.com and phone numbers 08167070215, 08099450083, and 08165697368. The public is encouraged to report any information related to her whereabouts to the appropriate authorities, as efforts intensify to bring her to justice and recover the misappropriated funds.
