Iraq was the worst-affected country in 2013, experiencing 6,362 deaths – 35.4 percent of the worldwide total. Afghanistan is in second position with less than half that number of fatalities – 3,111. Neighboring Pakistan had 13 percent of the world’s terror-related fatalities in 2013, 2,345.

Kelvin Ogodogu, was arrested Saturday night through the help of some of his neigbours in Kosoa in the Central region.

Kelvin, had told the lady, whose name was given as Ikay, in the US that he will be burying his mum soon and badly needed financial assistance to do that.
The lady, believing that she was chatting with the actor, agreed to transfer an amount of $5,000 to the imposter but an accidental meeting with Majid in the US brought to light the fact she was rather dealing with an imposter.

The actor, who was worried about the development, set up a surveillance system in Ghana where the lady was urged to still deal with Kelvin.

The suspected fraudster was arrested by neighbours who had been alerted by the police after he made attempts to retrieve a $1,000 sent by Ikay.

Kelvin admitted to the Police that he had been defrauding unsuspecting persons in the name of the actor for the past two years.

He is expected to appear before the La Dadekotopon Municipal Assembly (LaDMA) Magistrates' Court in Labadi Today, November 19.
