A 42-year-old man, Abdulsalam Ajibola, has been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps in Kwara State for allegedly defrauding two admission seekers.
Ajibola was said to have presented himself as a soldier and promised to help his victims secure admission into Nigerian Defence Academy, Kaduna.
