Sir,
COMPLAINT OF OBTAINING, STEALING AND CRIMINAL DIVERSION OF THE SUM
OF $447,000 (FOUR HUNDRED AND FORTY-SEVEN THOUSAND UNITED STATES
DOLLARS) BY ONE MR. BABATUNDE I. AFOLABI AND HIS COHORTS.
My name is Mr. Kenny Awosika, I am the managing director of Executive Consults LLC,.
Firstly, I wish to congratulate you for your courage and patriotism in fighting economic
and financial crimes in our country. Your commitment -towards the eradication of
official corruption has continued to keep hope alive in our country Nigeria.
1. Sir, my determination to contribute to the rebuilding our country Nigeria
imbued me to start an aviation company with one Mr. Babatunde I. Afolabi in
2012, we registered the parent company in USA by the name, Green White Group
(GWG) with home address in Maryland, USA at 11304 Appledowre Way
Germantown, MD 20876 in 2013.
2. GWG Maryland was registered with my name (Kenny Awosika) and Mr.
Babawande Afolabi as owners. Equity distribution is stated as Kenny Awosika
(55%) and Babawande Afolabi (45%). We developed Investor Presentations and
we both made contacts to seed investors to raise seed funds.
3. From formation to recent months, my commitment and financial dedication to
the company includes leaving my full time $153,000 salaried job to move to
Nigeria, selling my Washington D.C. rental property, selling my stocks, using my
wedding funds to fund licensing and operational activities, and emptying my
entire savings for the continued operations of company when there were no
investor funds.
4. I solely made the total payments of $8,000 for all the GWG Maryland U.S. tax
payments from formation to present.
5. I made payments for Green White Group and Green Africa Airways Nigeria
services from 2013 to 2018 that sums up to $20,000.
6. My finances paid for majority of Green Africa Airways funding activities and
operations projects from 2013 to 2017; the estimated amount I expended was
$25,000.
7. I sent to Mr. Babawande Afolabi the sum of $71,000 via (checks, wire transfers,
and direct deposits into his account and the GWG Maryland business account)
and even gave him free access to my credit card for the operations of GWG
Maryland and Green Africa Airways Nigeria.
8. In 2018 alone, I purchased $8,000 worth of tools and materials for the operations
of Green Africa Airways Nigeria while I was in Nigeria.
9. Using the GWG Maryland company, I raised $65,000 from seed investors (family
and friends) in the United States for the operations of the supposed subsidiary
company, Green Africa Airways Nigeria; A total of $250,000 was raised from
seed investors globally and sent to Mr. Babatunde I. Afolabi.
10. Thereafter, Babawande Afolabi in return skewedly did not indicate that Green
Africa Airways Nigeria Limited is a subsidiary of the parent company - GWG
Maryland during its registration with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).
The Air Travel License (ATL) was granted and Babawande Afolabi while filling
for the Air Travel License (ATL) with the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority
(NCAA) in Nigeria did not indicate my name as a co-owner.
While I was making effort to secure investors, I discovered I was duped me by Mr,
Babatunde Afolabi by converting all the monies I sent to him to his personal use and
with false pretenses, he fraudulently registered Green White Group (GWG) UK and
Green White Group (GWG) Delaware without including my name. Babawande Afolabi
then linked GWG UK as parent company to Green Africa Airways, Nigeria (now worth
$54 Million pre-Series B valuation). It was at this time that I discovered had been
scammed by Mr. Babawande Afolabi.
It is important to note sir, that all my financial commitments have gone down the drain,
I have on several occasions demanded for the refund for my money till date to no avail.
That all efforts I made to get him prosecuted or recover my money have proved
abortive because Mr. Babatunde I. Afolabi has since remained elusive.
That from all indications, it is obvious that I have fallen victim of advance fee fraud
judging from the manner in which he has been tossing me around.
It will be appreciated if you can use your good offices to recover the said sum together
with interests. Your intervention in getting redress for me will go a long way in
redeeming the image of our country which has been dented by the likes of Mr.
Babatunde I. Afolabi.
Please accept my excellent courtesies.
Yours faithfully,
KENNY AWOSIKA,
