A video of Monday Okpebholo has sparked widespread reactions across social media platforms.

The Edo State governor was speaking at the opening ceremony of the Niger Delta Games when the moment occurred. During his address, he paused to acknowledge President Bola Tinubu, who was represented at the event by a government official.

However, as Governor Okpebholo attempted to reference the President’s official title — Grand Commander of the Order of the Federal Republic (GCFR) — he appeared to struggle briefly with the pronunciation. The moment, captured on video, quickly made its way online, where users began sharing clips and commenting on the incident.

While some social media users viewed the moment humorously, others downplayed it as a minor slip that can happen during live speeches. Public speaking, especially at high-profile events, can sometimes come with unscripted moments that draw unexpected attention.

The clip has since continued to circulate, fueling conversations across various platforms.

A 27-year-old man, Yusuf Abdullahi, has been arrested in Lagos for allegedly impersonating a serving officer of the Nigerian Air Force and defrauding traders across major markets in the state in what authorities describe as a long-running scheme.

Military officials said the suspect operated by presenting himself as an Air Force personnel, using military camouflage to gain the confidence of unsuspecting traders before collecting goods and issuing fake bank transfer alerts.

His activities, investigators said, spanned several markets in Lagos and went undetected for years.

The operation came to an end on February 18, 2026, when traders at Ladipo Market raised an alarm over a man dressed in military attire who allegedly obtained goods without making valid payments.

He was initially restrained by traders before officers from the Ladipo Police Division intervened and took him into custody.

Confirming the arrest, the Public Relations Officer of the Nigerian Armed Forces Resettlement Centre, NAFRC, Commander Patricia Ochei, said the suspect claimed to be a serving Air Force personnel attached to 055 Camp, Lagos, prompting the involvement of military police from NAFRC.

According to her, verification carried out by the Air Force revealed that Abdullahi was neither a serving member nor a former personnel of the Nigerian Air Force.

“He is an impostor who deliberately exploited military identity to gain trust and defraud members of the public. This was his established modus operandi before his arrest,” Ochei said.
