Nov 4, 2015 – Picture: Igbo Trader Dies Of Heart Attack At Ladipo Market In Mushin Lagos After Friend Duped Him Of N21 Million
A trader at the popular Ladipo auto spare parts market in Mushin area of Lagos state has slumped and died after he was duped to the tune of $95,000 by a friend.
The equivalent of the money is about N21m at the exchange rate.
The victim, Chigozie Ezeanyagu died at a private hospital on Tuesday morning where he was admitted after he slumped.
We gathered that the late Ezeanyagu gave the money to his friend based in the United States to send him some spare parts for sale at Ladipo market.
The friend reported collected the money and traveled to United State of America, USA, with a promise that he will send the goods as he requested.
The deceased waited for several months this year to receive the goods but to no avail.
He then, reportedly, placed a call to his friend and asked to know what was delaying the supply of the goods.
It was then his friend told him to forget the money as he had used the money for other purpose.
The response from his friend caused him to slump and thereafter he became unconscious. He was rushed to a private hospital where he eventually passed on.
The doctors said his blood pressure rose beyond control which resulted in his immediate death.
The late Ezeanyagu hails from Umuchu town in Aguata local government in Anambra state eastern Nigeria.
His corpse has been taken to a Visitation Hospital mortuary in Umuchu town, where he will be buried at his family compound.
The late Ezeanyagu, who got married three years ago was blessed with a twins, a boy and a girl.
When our reporter visited his resident at Oke street in Ejigbo, family members, well wishers and neighbours gathered there and expressed shock over his death.
Also traders from Ladipo market were there to sympathize with his wife and members of his family who were still shock following his demise.
The wife who was unable to speak to our reporter due the shock, only muted that “he was the bread winner of the family”.
The friend who allegedly duped him is from his neighbouring town in Achina in Aguata Local government in Anambra State.

Woman who treated Bobbi Kristina Brown in a hospice just weeks before her death is arrested for impersonating a nurse
• Taiwo Sobamowo, 32, was arrested Sunday in North Carolina
• She faces charges of impersonating a nurse, forgery and identity theft
• Arrest warrant states that Sobawowo was nurse in charge of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s treatment while she was in hospice
• The only daughter of Bobby Brown and the late Whitey Houston spent the last month of her life at Peachtree Christian Hospice in Duluth, Georgia
• Duluth police say Sobamowo was one of the nurses who treated Bobbi Kristina, but her former employers say she worked in the office
By Ashley Collman For Dailymail.com
It turns out that one of the nurses who treated a comatose Bobbi Kristina Brown in the last month of her life wasn’t a medical professional at all.
The shocking new revelation was made on Sunday, when police arrested 32-year-old Taiwo Sobamowo in North Carolina on charges of impersonating a nurse.
Authorities say Sobamowo used the identity number of an actual nurse with a similar name in order to get a job at Peachtree Christian Hospice in Duluth, Georgia, where Brown died this past July.
Arresting papers list her as the person in charge for Brown’s care. Authorities have not said whether Brown’s livelihood was impacted by Sobamowo’s lack of training.

Last days: Sobawowo reportedly used the identity of a woman with a similar name to get a job at Peachtree Christian Hospice, where Bobbi Kirstina was taken off life support this summer
Investigators told Fox 5 Atlanta that they don’t believe Sobamowo was trying to get close to the Brown family, since she is suspected of having pulled this con before at other medical centers.
However, there was a controversy when photos leaked of Bobbi Kristina on her death bed, and the person behind those private pictures has never been identified.
Sobamowo is also facing charges of forgery and identity theft, and the George Board of Nursing is reportedly looking into how she got away with passing herself off as a licensed medical professional.
Authorities reportedly started investigating Sobawowo in September, after receiving a tip.
Fox 5 reports that Sobamowo recently fled Georgia, but authorities were able to track her down to North Carolina where she was arrested on Sunday.

Mother and daughter: Bobbi Kristina (right) died at Peachtree Christian Hospice in July, after being in a coma since January. She is the daughter of the Bobby Brown and the late Whitney Houston (left)
She is suspected of carrying off a similar con in the Washington, DC area.
Homestead Hospice and Palliative Care, the company which contracts nurses to work for Peachtree Christian, told Fox 5 that they were ‘shocked and dismayed that she had issued with her licensing’
The company said Sobamowo was fired immediately after they found out about the con.
Duluth police confirmed to Fox 5 that Sobamowo was one of the nurses who treated Bobbi Kristina, but Homestead officials say that she worked in the office.
‘We understand that we are not the only hospice that she has gained fraudulent employment with, and we are relieved that she is no longer practicing,’ Amanda McKissick, regional director of operations for Homestead, said.
Bobbi Kristina was transferred to the hospice on June 24, when her condition worsened and her family sought to take her off life support.
The 22-year-old daughter of Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston died at the facility on July 26.
She had been in a coma since January 31, 2015, when her longtime boyfriend Nick Gordon found her unconscious in a bathtub at their suburban Atlanta home.
CASE CLOSED.
