Fake Navy Captain Busted in Lagos: How Impostors Tried to Intimidate Residents in Oworonshoki

Lagos Task Force has arrested three men for allegedly posing as Nigerian Navy officers to defraud residents and obstruct government operations in Oworonshoki. The principal suspect, identified as James K. Robert, reportedly used a fake naval identity to intimidate officials, demand the release of seized vehicles and threaten confrontation. Suspicion arose after he failed to provide verifiable service details and wore a poorly arranged uniform. Naval Police later confirmed he was not a serving officer, leading to his arrest alongside two accomplices. Investigations are ongoing.
