In the course of the internet affair, Ikechukwu promised his victim marriage and later began to make monetary demands on her, using various excuses. Once, he told her that he had problems with government officials and requested for a loan. He later cajoled her into partnering with him on a phantom timber business.

The last request he made before he was arrested was a demand for $10,000 to enable him travel to Denmark to meet her. It was while he was attempting to draw the $100 sent by the victim( instead of the $10,000 requested) through Western Union that he was arrested.

The suspect would be arraigned in court as soon as investigation is completed.
