Wife demands justice from husband for lying about his genotype status
The wife demands justice from the husband for lying about his genotype status, Bigamy, Forged Marriage Certificate, Impersonation and Forgery.
SaharaWeeklyNG Reports That A mother of two, Mrs Helen lluobe is demanding justice from her husband who deceived her with his genotype status before marriage which resulted in having three sickle cells disorder children of which her first child died mysteriously.
Iluobe who narrated her ordeal told our correspondent that the husband, Mr Kelly Iluobe lied about his genotype for his selfish interest.
“It all started when a family friend came with Kelly to my birthday party and he Kelly introduced me.
He came demanding my contact number which I refused, after two weeks he came back to our house and met my father and introduced himself.
“He told my father that he was at my birthday party and that he liked me so we courted for two years.
Mrs Iluobe said that when they were dating she asked the husband about his genotype status because her family genotype is AS but he told her he was AA.
“During that period of our courtship, he claimed to be a businessman who stayed abroad, so he was on and off the country we eventually we got married.
“Unfortunately, my first child died mysteriously, the second was at the same time hospitalized before I asked the hospital to conduct genotype text for the children.
“The result showed that both of them have sickle cell disorder.
She said that all this while the husband was off and on, so when the child died he sent his elder brother Moses Adams Iluobe to her parents demanding to know what happened to the child and also consulted the elders in the village before he will be buried.
” After the genotype result was out I did not see my husband again, he only sent his elder brother who came with flimsy excuses.
“Any time the children are in crisis and I call his family members there will be no good response until September 2020 when my husband remarried without asking for me and his children.
Sahara weekly gathered that Advocates for Children and Vulnerable Persons Network ACVPN received a complaint from one Mrs Iluobe on how her husband absconded for four years and instituted a petition asking the Inspector General of police for his intervention.
” However, Mr Kelly Iluobe who was invited on several occasions never reported to the station until his elder brother and his surety were arrested.
Mr Iluobe claimed he travelled to Ethiopia at the request of his elder brother for a business deal.
Although he told his wife before that he was in Brazil.
After his brother was arrested he now put a call to him and he promised to report back immediately he returned to Nigeria.
Surprisedly, Mr Illuobe returned and took a petition to the Administration Unit of FCID, Alagbon where he accused his wife of theft and using the police to harass him.
Our correspondent also learnt that the first meeting for both parties was fixed for the 17th and 18th of June 2021 at FCID admin where drama ensued.
“The IPO Tayo Alagono tried to play smart by trying to make the Mrs Iiluobe a suspect but the advocates stood their ground that such should not happen.
They said that Mr Kelly Iluobe was invited by the gender Anti-human Trafficking unit SCID Panti but he never honoured the invitation until when his elder brother and friend who stood as surety were arrested and released on bail.
She said that Mr Kelly Iluobe told various lies against her and her family before the ACP Rasheed Lawal in charge of the Admin Unit in FCID.
ACP then instructed the IPO to send the case file to the Force CID Legal Unit immediately for action.
“We were asked to go and come back for another meeting on 25th of June 2021 to decide when the case would be charged to court.
” But we were surprised at the submission of the ACP LAWAL RASHEED, he started preaching about the interest of my children to be protected leaving out the criminal aspect of the case.
“I could not believe the scenario, it looked suspicious right from the onset, was that why my husband ran down to the Force Criminal Investigative Department Admin unit? I presume this case supposed to be handled by the Gender Anti-human Trafficking unit FCID?.
Meanwhile, Advocates for Children and Vulnerable Persons Network ACVPN have expressed dissatisfaction over the role of the police officers attached to the Unit of Force Criminal Investigation Department FCID Alagbon Lagos in trying to truncate a case of fake identity.
The coordinator, Mr Ebenezer Omejalile of ACVPN, condemned the way the case is being handled.
” It shouldn’t be like this, I am using this medium to call on the authority to look into the matter for justice to prevail.
Omejalile noted that during the discussion with Mr Kelly Iluobe, he claimed that he always put a call to his wife to enquire about the children and also sent money for their welfare since he wasn’t always around, but his wife debunked his claims.
However, Immediately his wife challenged him to prove his claims, he could not utter a single word to all the allegations presented before him.
“Also he claimed that he never discussed genotype with his wife and that they only dated for 3months and she got pregnant for him that produced three children.
“Surprisingly, Mr Kelly’s elder brother admitted that both had courtship for two years before marriage both through the introduction and Native Law and Custom.
“We want this case to be handed over to the unit of Gender Anti-human Trafficking FCID so we will not be having a lopsided decision in this case.
“We also gathered that the ACP Admin is pushing for settlement which his wife and mother in law turned down.
“Mr Kelly also lied, he told his families and friends over the years that he rented and stocked up his wife and mother in law stores with materials and items.
Omejalile said that Helen Iluobe and her family want justice and their decision should be respected by the Admin Force CID.
Meanwhile, Kelly in his petition didn’t mention anything regarding the two daughters welfare but kept emphasizing that the princess stole his properties.
More than ₦3 billion was targeted, but about ₦677 million reached the culprits, with recovery and prosecutions underway, reflecting how banks are responding to more sophisticated fraud risks.
Nigeria’s expanding digital banking sector is facing increasingly sophisticated fraud attempts, as financial institutions adapt to faster transactions and broader online services.
A recent case involving First City Monument Bank (FCMB), linked to fraudulent activity detected in December 2025, has drawn attention to how banks are responding to such incidents, with a focus on limiting exposure, recovering funds and working with law enforcement.
According to findings referenced in proceedings before the Lagos State Special Offences Court, the incident involved unauthorised transactions tied to a digital product. Early reports erroneously suggested more than ₦3 billion was lost. Subsequent clarification shows that over ₦3 billion was targeted, ₦2.4 billion was blocked and recovered, while ₦677 million got into the possession of the culprits. This outcome reflects the bank’s cyber security and monitoring capabilities, as well as improved collaboration among regulated financial institutions and with law enforcement agencies. Several suspects and beneficiaries have been apprehended, while recovery and prosecution efforts are ongoing, led by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Proceedings at the Lagos State Special Offences Court have resulted in convictions, including that of a repeat offender, with restitution orders issued. Related matters are also being handled at the Federal High Court in Lagos, where additional suspects are being tried in connection with the scheme. This process is aimed at ensuring that bad actors are identified and permanently blacklisted from the financial system.
Authorities say recovery efforts are continuing as additional funds are traced.
Analysts note that the pace of legal action reflects closer coordination between financial institutions and enforcement agencies in addressing cyber-related financial crime.
The case comes as banks contend with more complex fraud methods, including social engineering and automated exploitation of system processes.
As digital products and platforms expand, so too does the risk associated with cyber-crime and related fraud.
“The scale of digital banking means risks are evolving alongside the systems,” said a Lagos-based financial analyst. “Institutions are now judged by how they manage these events.”
Observers say the sector is moving toward a stronger focus on response and recovery, rather than prevention alone.
This includes improving monitoring capabilities, strengthening transaction controls and enhancing collaboration with regulators and law enforcement. The FCMB case, with limited exposure relative to the amount targeted and ongoing recovery, reflects that shift.
For customers, the primary concern is the safety of their funds. In this case, there has been no indication of losses affecting customer deposits. Maintaining that level of protection remains central to sustaining trust in the financial system.
Nigeria’s financial sector continues to grow, supported by digital innovation and expanding access to banking services.
However, analysts say fraud attempts are likely to persist as systems become more complex and interconnected.
They say institutions will increasingly be judged not only on their ability to prevent incidents, but on how effectively they respond and recover when they occur.

Ex-APC Deputy Guber flag bearer, Joshua MacIver backs Tinubu, express fears over implosion in Bayelsa APC
….congratulates new State Party Chairman, Warman Ogoriba
APC Deputy Governorship Candidate in the 2023 general elections in Bayelsa State, Great Joshua MacIver has declared his total commitment to the re-election of President Bola Tinubu come 2027, declaring that the Tinubu re-election project is non-negotiable.
Great Joshua MacIver, in his statement titled ” BAYELSA APC CONGRESSES: GOING FORWARD, A CALL TO LOOK INWARDS” and made available to newsmen in Yenagoa, warned APC leaders in the state to look Inward and take note of certain factors which may hinder or cut short our victory.
According to Great Joshua MacIver, such noticeable pitfalls include the imbalance in the united front being put up by the State Governor,Senator Douye Diri among various political blocs in the state.
In the statement issued at the weekend. Great Joshua MacIver stated that “First, before His Excellency, Senator Douye Diri, joined the APC in the state, there were clearly two political blocs that made up the party, with the approximate population ratios of the blocs standing at 95% to 5%.”
“After the entrance of His Excellency, Senator Douye Diri, ONLY THE SMALLER BLOC IS BEING CARRIED ALONG IN THE AFFAIRS OF THE PARTY, leaving the greater percentage to their fate, and this situation has the potential to build anger and dissatisfaction in our dear party.”
” The consequence of this has been the high level defection we have witnessed in the party recently and we believe more may likely follow, if we do not put our house in order.”
” If we do not pull together as a party, we may witness a situation where we will lose key stakeholders, especially after the State and National Assembly Primaries as well the Gubernatorial Primaries.”
“Finally, while it is very clear that we are the party to beat in the 2027 elections and that our loyalty to Mr. President IS NON-NEGOTIABLE, we must make haste to say that we cannot afford to create situations or loopholes in our unity which will be exploited by other political interests in the state. We cannot afford to under-rate anyone.”
“Our core interest remains the re-election of Mr. President, a project to which we have committed our all. We also pledge our total loyalty to the party as we have no alternative to the APC. However, our concern is that we must, as a party, look inwards and ensure that we do not create loopholes that can impede our common goal.”
Great Joshua MacIver, however congratulated the newly elected State Executives of the APC in Bayelsà State led by Hon. Warman Ogoriba, saying their emergence is welcomed at this critical time in our national history.

More than 100 other people were injured in the blasts that took place on Monday evening in the capital of Nigeria’s restive Borno state.
No group has claimed responsibility for the suspected attacks.
The deadly blasts come after a military post was attacked overnight Sunday to Monday, which authorities blamed on suspected Islamist militants.
This sad incident is coming barely two weeks after Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church specifically warned against attacks in some states. He mentioned these states while calling on security operatives to pay close attention to them.
These were his words:
“Another attack is coming up in these following states where the military must watch carefully and intelligently; Kano, Kaduna, Zamfara, Kebbi, Niger, Borno, Kwara and Kogi state. They want to do a deadly attack, it’s preventable but it depends on how they will handle it. I have told you about the danger coming up.”
@primateayodele
Unfortunately, some of our military agencies don’t believe spiritual intelligence can save the country from so much danger hence, their neglect of this prophetic warning but now, it has been fulfilled with the miliary losing credibility by the day while Primate Ayodele continues to gain momentum.
Likewise, At least 26 passengers and crew sustained varying degrees of injuries on Monday following an accident involving the Kaduna–Abuja train, according to the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC).
Opeifa explained that the train departed Rigasa in Kaduna at 7:15 a.m. and was approaching Asham station around 9:16 a.m. when a loud bang was heard after the power car and trailing locomotive collided with one of the passenger coaches.
In July 2025, Primate Ayodele asked nigerians to pray not to see train mishap on the Kaduna-Abuja route.
@primateayodele #nigeriantiktok🇳🇬 #fulfillment #train #abuja #primateayodele
“Let’s pray not to see train mishap in Abuja-Kaduna, Kaduna-Abuja route.”
This has also been fulfilled.
