Student who impersonated singer laura george arraigned in lagos
I think I have found the article you're referring to!
According to a report by The Punch, a student who impersonated popular Nigerian singer, Laura George, was arraigned in a Lagos court on Wednesday, March 15, 2023.
The student, identified as 20-year-old Chidinma Okeke, was accused of impersonating Laura George, a renowned singer and songwriter, by using her name and image to deceive people and gain financial benefits.
Okeke allegedly created a fake social media account in Laura George's name and used it to solicit money and gifts from unsuspecting fans. She also claimed to be the singer and performed at events, deceiving people into believing she was the real Laura George.
The police arrested Okeke after Laura George reported the incident to the authorities. She was charged with forgery, impersonation, and obtaining money by false pretenses.
The court has adjourned the case to April 12, 2023, for further hearing.
It's a shame that someone would resort to such deceitful behavior, and I hope the court takes appropriate action to bring Okeke to justice.
