…woman narrates how she was scammed, sent into depression by Okpebholo’s aide in viral video
A woman, Blessing Abel, has taken to social media to drag the Special Adviser to Senator Monday Okpebholo on Oil and Gas, Felix Isere, for defrauding her of £6,000 under the pretense of processing a UK settlement visa for her.
In the very emotional video, now gone viral, the woman who was seen crying profusely, recounted how she was promised a United Kingdom settlement visa by Isere, only to be left stranded and financially drained after making the payment since March 2024.
She claimed that the supposed travel arrangements never materialized as Isere instead resorted to forging documents, leaving her in severe distress and pushing her into depression.
Recall that Felix Isere, who was formerly based in UK, was appointed as Special Adviser on Oil and Gas by Senator Monday Okpebholo on December 5, 2024. He is currently serving in the government of Edo State.
The status of government does not allow persons with criminal behaviors and records to hold public office or occupy positions of trust. Given the severity of these allegations, there are growing calls for his immediate suspension pending a full investigation into the matter.
“I really need my money back. I cannot fight this battle on my own. I need help to reach out to the UK Government to recover my money. I have been duped, and I have no one to fight for me. Please, I need help to get my money back from Felix Isere,” the distraught woman said in the viral video.
She continued: “I want my money back from Felix Isere. I knew him through a friend named Bright. In March 2024, I sent Felix Isere £6,000 to process an EU settlement visa for me. Till now, I have neither received my money nor the visa.
“Felix Isere forged documents and produced fake papers, claiming they were for my UK settlement. Everything was fake. I have been requesting my money since last year, but he told me I couldn’t do anything to him and that he wouldn’t refund my money. He said my £6,000 was gone.”
“I trusted him, but didn’t know it was all a scam. I lost my money, my peace of mind, and even my will to keep going. I have been depressed. I can’t go a day without crying and thinking about my hard-earned money.”
“Losing that kind of money is not easy. All I want is for Felix Isere to return my money. He believes that because he is now in government, he can go scot-free with my money. I don’t have anyone to help me, that’s why I am doing this video. Please, I just want to recover my money peacefully from Felix Isere,” Blessing added while crying in the viral video.
