According to Daily Independent, Mr. Segun Adewale, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Senatorial candidate for Lagos West was duped of N500,000 by a lady impersonating as Tiwa Savage, who asked him to pay this amount for performing at his event.
Adewale, who is the Managing Director of Aeroland, a traveling agency based in Lagos had plans of having the singer perform at his declaration party, but when Tiwa Savage did not show up at the event, he realized he had been duped. He is however hoping that the bank will help him in retrieving some of the money, although the report claimed that a withdrawal has been made on the beneficiary account.
