A Nigerian identified as Kenneth Ganiu Ninalowo who is believed to be related to Nollywood actor, Bolanle Ninalowo has been arrested by the FBI on charges of laundering over $1.5 million in Chicago. The FBI says the money is derived from scams targeting an unnamed Chicago-area community college and an energy company, who were defrauded into sending approximately $5 million to fraudulent bank accounts controlled by the 40-year-old Ninalowo and his partner, 27-year-old Brittney Stokes.
The pair were charged as part of a larger investigation, which included the recent arrests of over 280 individuals, including 167 in Nigeria, 18 in Turkey and 15 in Ghana. The Department of Justice says arrests were also made in France, Italy, Japan, Kenya, Malaysia, and the United Kingdom.
