Controversy

In 2018, Amina Mohammed, aka Justina Oluoha and Amina Villa, was arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS) for reportedly impersonating Bello and the Nigerian former president's wife, Aisha Buhari. [15] [16] On Monday, 3 December 2018, in Abuja, DSS public relations officer Peter Afunanya revealed this while speaking to reporters about the arrest. [17] He claimed that the suspect gained unlawful entrance to Aso Villa and utilised the national First Lady's office to commit fraud. [18] Before being identified, the suspect used several names and identities to deceive unsuspecting people, according to Afunanya. [19] [20]
