Abuja – A wire fraud suspect, Adedunmola Gbadegesin has been extradited to the United States where he is wanted in a case of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering.

The offences contravene Title 18, US Code, Section 1349 and 1956 (h) and carries a maximum jail term of 20 years.

EFCC spokesman Wilson Uwujaren said in Abuja that Gbadegesin’s extradition was coordinated by
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), following a request from the office of the Attorney-General of the Federation.

” This in turn followed a February 11, 2022 Order by Justice D.E Osiagor of the Federal High Court, Lagos, in Suit No. FHC/L/CS/765/21.

The suit granted a request to extradite the suspect to the United States to answer to criminal charges bordering on romance scam, wire fraud and money laundering,” EFCC spokesman said in a statement.
