A 300-level student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University gets arrested with 108 ATM cards

34-year-old Pascal Udeh, who is suspected to be working for an international criminal organization, was arrested at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, attempting to board a flight to China. The debit cards belong to 
5 Nigerian banks with First City Monument Bank having the highest number of cards with 58; Stanbic IBTC Bank had 23 cards; Zenith Bank, 19; Fidelity Bank, 6; and Diamond Bank, 2.

NDLEA says it has established a prima facie case of financial crime against him and the case has now been transferred to EFCC. In his statement, Udeh said: “I am not the owner of the cards. I was told to take them to China and that somebody will collect them from me when I get there.

I have a shop where I sell clothes at Onitsha main market. I am also a 300-level student of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka, Anambra State studying History and International Relations. I never knew it would lead to my arrest."
