EFCC seals First Group office for ‘fleecing’ Nigerians of $200bn

EFCC recalled that it was this reason that made its officials storm First Group office in Abuja two months ago.
“Investigations into the scam revealed that the company originally known as TFG Real Estate Limited operates in Nigeria in the guise of being The First Group Company, a Dubai-based real estate firm, which is not registered in Nigeria,” the source said.
“The modus operandi of the company is to lure innocent Nigerians interested in owning properties in Dubai, into parting with their hard-earned money.
“They are mandated to make the payment in instalments. However, the payment is deliberately structured in such a way that the debt is difficult to offset, and as soon as one defaults, the money will be ‘seized’ by the company
“The company is implicated in a phony real estate scam in which innocent Nigerians were duped to the tune of $200 billion.
“EFCC operatives had in May 2016 raided the office as part of investigations in the alleged property fraud. Several implicating documents were discovered, including a list of high profile patrons”, the source added.
In a message on its website, the company says “When you invest in property with The First Group, our promise is to provide you with much more than amazing real estate and lucrative returns.

He said: “few weeks ago, both the clergy and the laity gathered and showed their anger over the activities of these Fulani herdsmen; we were able to calm people down; we said let us give government a chance; but you can see the climax, a student has just been butchered; it looks like we are being targeted every year, we are being attacked. “The government should do something about this; it is very painful; it is very sad. This is not the way to do things; all of a sudden these people have assumed another efrontery, they have assumed another boldness, they have assumed another attitude. “If they cannot live with us together, let them quietly go; this is our land, we cannot pack out of this place. “We are pleading with all the security agencies to look into this because at a time, people may not hold their patience again, there may be free range of anger and violence. “Of course we are not prone to violence but at a time we can really be stretched so much that we will have no optio
