There has been noise in the air about TELPECON / SEM grant since 2015 in which many politicians and Central Bank of Nigeria ( CBN ) have been repeatedly indicted as forces fighting against disbursement.
Even recently, one Mr Segun Adewale who claimed to be TELPECON Chairman in Oshogbo branch disclosed to ourworldgist via phone call that he had received the grant on 22nd December, 2020.
Perhaps following his claim, ourworldgist went into finding and discovered that his claim was nothing but a huge falsehood.
In the course of the finding, ourworldgist came across an article written by Richard Abiodun whose many believe is a journalist with high reputation.
In what Richard Abiodun titles as \” Some of The Lies About SEM/ TELPECON , he lamented with dismay why some Nigerians are this gullible thereby playing into the hands of scammers.
Let us read his thought provoking article:
\” Am amazed that Nigerians can easily be deceived by some fraudsters under the name SEM TELPECON.
This is so because we are naturally lazy when it comes to research.
Or maybe some of us are so greedy that we fail to ask questions when juicy offers are presented to us.
The following are claims by promoters of SEM / TELPECON which defiles common sense and reasoning.
1. SEM/ TELPECON identified the donors as LLC, NY. USA,
Sadly there is no organization called LLC, NY USA in the United States.
Under US laws and statue LLC simply means Limited Liability Company.
My research from US business and Non governmental organization directories indicates that there is no company or NGO called LLC in USA.
Further enquires from top business executive and government officials in USA also support this fact.
2. SEM/TELPECON says the donors address is No. 1 East 53rd St. 8th floor, NY.
First and foremost this address is confirmed as a fake address.
There is no NGO or company that uses this address in USA.
At least none on the record of registered organization in USA.
3. There are news about a confirmation of remission of the grant to Barr. Donald Olorunkayode Adebayo in two tranches
a. $368billion traceable to a Zenith Bank PLC a/c since 2017 forming the first batch, and
b. $430billion as a second tranche.
There is no organization in the world that can provide such huge fund to an organization not to talk of an individual.
How can such a huge sum be transfered to an individual account without CBN knowledge of such transaction?
The Apex bank had in the past denied any knowledge of such grant as being promoted by SEM/ TELPECON.
Common sense should tell anyone that this cannot be possible.
This amount is more than the budget of Nigeria and there is no how such an amount can be in the possession of an individual or even an organization that is not linked to government.
4. There is also information that $160billion has been traced to Barr. Donald Olukayode Adebayo\’,s personal a/c. Possibly interest generated from fixing the money.
All this is nothing but false!
The earlier we accept that this grant is fake the better. Millions have been scammed and the best thing to do is to bring the fraudsters to justice.
If SEM/ TELPECON is real, can provide where they have done similar project before?
Can they come on air with CBN spoken person and tell Nigerians all the claims they have been dishing out through WhatsApp?
Some have died of hypertension waiting for this audio grant and many will still die waiting for the fake grant else we are to collectively chase these people away or bring them before the wrath of law.
Enough is enough for the wise.
This is to discourage anyone who may want to follow their foot steps\”.
