decided to back out from an earlier business of making him a beneficiary of his
inheritance, a business he later found out to be a scam.

unsuspecting Kuba as Chief Barrister Elvis Yemaye. He also parades himself as
an official of both the EFCC and the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN using various
fictitious e-mails.
