The 19 year-old lady who impersonated
Starboy Entertainment singer, Wizkid,
with the aim of defrauding people has
been revealed.
The lady has been identified as Ifeoma Nelly,

an Industrial Chemistry undergraduate at the
Delta State University , Abraka.
According to Tori.ng , Nelly was apprehended
as she was trying to meet with an Australian ,
who was supposed to pay her a sum of
$25,000, as payment for Wizkid's
performance.
This however turned out to be a trap, as it
was from this meeting that the suspect was
arrested.
According to Wizkid's manager, Mr. Sunday
Are , Nelly confessed to have received cash
paid in foreign currency for Wizkid's
supposed concert performance.
Are said, “She has collected money from
different people. If you don’t have evidence
against her, she would deny it. But if you
show her evidence, she would tell you the
truth. There was the case of the $53,000,
which we had to refund to the owner.
"She confirmed that she was the one who
collected it. There was another payment of
$12,500 from Germany. The Germany people
sent details of how they paid the money to
her. She couldn’t deny it.”
The manager also said the incident has led to
a great embarrassment for himself and the
singer, as they were accused of collecting
money without performing.
“We had been having problems with
different clients because of this. We keep
refunding all the money. It was an issue.
When it became serious, we had to refund
the money to victims."
"Some people will just go, write in papers
that Wikzid disappointed them. They would
say Wizkid and his manager collected money
and didn’t come to perform. Meanwhile, we
didn’t know about those shows.”
“Whenever someone calls her or she calls
someone, its Wizkid’s name that would show.
True caller shows Wizkid. We need
everybody to help us fight this. We have
started taking corrective steps concerning the
fake accounts.”
Wizkid became the subject of concert
boycott, when a show promoting agency
located in London, accused the singer of
evading a concert he was booked for.
The singer was said to have reported the
issue to the Lagos State Commissioner of
Police, Fatai Owoseni, who subsequently
found the culprit.
