Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Inusah Fuseini, a former MP for Tamale Central, said that although he feels his son is innocent, he is startled that he would even mingle with criminals. His son is accused of money laundering and fraud in the US.
He claimed that his son’s fraud case surprised him since he had sent him abroad to study environmental engineering with the intention that he would return to the country and use his knowledge of the issue of climate change.
In an interview on Accra-based Okay FM, he said, “…I sent him to the US to go and school. I don’t believe he has committed the crimes he has been charged with, but for him to even associate with people who do that (fraud) is my worry. I know my son very well, and I know he won’t do that.”
31-year-old Abdul Inusah was arrested for his role in a Huntington-based scheme that defrauded individuals in multiple states through the use of false online personas.
A statement from the United States Department of Justice explained that evidence at trial revealed that “Inusah was part of a conspiracy that targeted victims using false personas via email, text messaging, and online dating and social media websites. From at least January 2018 through at least December 2019, the scheme sought to induce victims into believing they were in a romantic relationship, friendship, or business relationship with various false personas. The victims were persuaded to send money for a variety of false and fraudulent reasons for the benefit of the false personas.”
