Just like MMM, Muyiwa and Glory Osei, MBA, etc, another financial fraud couple have struck again.
Nigerians will never learn.

The man operates a micro lending platform for small and medium scale traders. He collects money from investors, lends to the traders at 22percent interest then returns 10 percent of the profit to investors monthly.

The lady is enrolled in East London University UK. Total exposure from people that are known is currently to the tune of 22 billion Naira and more people are still coming out.
