Police to Prosecute Ghanaian Nationals for Alleged Corporate Fraud in River Park Estate Case
The Nigeria Police Force has concluded its investigation into a major fraud case involving three Ghanaian nationals—Samuel Esson Jonah, Kojo Mensah Ansah, and Victor Quainoo—and a Nigerian, Abu Arome. The suspects are accused of fraudulently seizing control of JonahCapital Nigeria Ltd, including its interests in Houses for Africa Nigeria Ltd and River Park Estate.
According to a statement by ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the suspects allegedly forged documents, falsified signatures, and falsely claimed Nigerian citizenship to manipulate the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) records, allocating 99 million shares to themselves unlawfully.
The police refuted reports suggesting the suspects had been cleared, adding that they ignored multiple invitations and instead engaged in smear campaigns and frivolous lawsuits against the force.
The Ghanaian High Commission has been formally notified, and the Nigeria Police will proceed with prosecution on charges including forgery, impersonation, criminal conspiracy, and obstruction of justice.
IGP Kayode Egbetokun emphasized the police’s commitment to due process, transparency, and the protection of legitimate investments, urging foreign investors to respect Nigerian laws while assuring them of continued support.
