Dominion Ajom is currently on the wanted list of the Police Intelligence Response Team (IRT) for impersonating Favour, his daughter, and borrowing N15 million via a bank account he opened in her name.

According to Favour, Ajom took a personal loan which was paid into a bank account with her details, but she did not know of this until her Zenith Bank account was restricted.

Trouble began when, sometime in November, she attempted making a transaction via her Zenith Bank account, only to realise it had been restricted.

She contacted the bank, and was asked to visit a branch for rectification. On getting to one, she was told the order was from the police, and that she needed to visit the IRT to “settle with them”.

“I ransacked my head and I knew I had done nothing illegal, not even crypto,” she told FIJ. “Then I remembered that sometime last year, my dad took my name, BVN, national ID and passports to open an account for me.

“He did this under the guise of gathering funds to be given to me after a while in case anything happened.”

But the duo fell out in late 2020, and have not communicated with each other since then. “Dominion was hardly there when I was growing up. My single mum struggled mostly on her own until she remarried,” Favour told FIJ.

In 2018, he returned to her life attempting to bond. After two years together, she left him in 2020 to live on her own and severed all ties, but his false gift came back to haunt her.

On December 2, she visited the police with a lawyer. One detective Emmanuel grilled her for hours, and demanded that she find her father or risk paying for his actions.

FIJ made attempts to reach Dominion, but he neither answered calls nor replied to a text message sent to his number.
