In a statement, the Executive Director Social Services
Development, on the Board of the Delta state Oil Producing Areas Development
Commission, (DESOPADEC), Hon Ochor Chris Ochor on Tuesday, October 18, 2016
disassociated himself from Facebook messages asking for financial inducements,
through the organization of meetings or any other activities that will involve
financial spending.
In the statement he called on Nigerians to beware of the
activities of fraudsters using Social Media like the Facebook, to scam them by
the cloning of their Facebook accounts to defraud citizens.
Hon Ochor stated that for more than one month running, he had
received numerous calls from well meaning Nigerians on issues purportedly
claiming that he will be meeting with them for some government contracts, with
financial implications.
The Executive Director however said he had no knowledge of such
meetings, as he never planned for such, even as a government official.
Buttressing this, he stated that one of the messages the
fraudsters had been sending to their victims is the
“The Bank of Agriculture is having a meeting with leaders in Niger
Delta on farming and the opportunities in it.
“This is not from me, and the Facebook page Hon-Ochor Chris Ochor
is not for me, and I dissociate myself from such messages and Facebook page,”
he stated, explaining that
“For the benefit of doubt, before this time I had asked my Media
Aides to close my official Facebook account, which is not this, and for now I
don’t have any Facebook account.
“Again it has come to
my notice that there are other Facebook accounts bearing my name. None of these
are mine. They are all fake and I call on all Nigerians, especially Deltans to
ignore such messages from the tricksters,” he concluded.
