Few days after the Cross River State commandant of the Nigerian
Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Mr. Clement Adesuyi, urged the
public to be security conscious because of the activities of ‘one
chance syndicates’, an elderly man, Godwin Atang, fell into the trap of
the syndicates yesterday.
Atang, who wept profusely along Murtala
Muhammed highway in Calabar, claimed he had left his company, Iwansco
Drinks Distribution Company at Mbukpa axis of Calabar South with the sum
of N180, 000, which he intended to deposit in a branch of Fidelity Bank
along the highway.
According to Atang, he had boarded a taxi from
Calabar South to the highway, but after he disembarked from the cab, he
checked his bag but was shocked to discover piles of papers instead of
money inside it.
“My name is Elder Godwin Atang and I work with
Iwansco Drinks Distribution Company in Mbukpa. I had with me N180, 000
which my director asked me to deposit at the Fidelity Bank here.
“The
taxi man who dropped me played a dirty trick on me by pretending to
open the door for me only to touch me with his magic which has resulted
in the whole money becoming papers in my hand,” Atang said
