The Tushima Senatorial Movement has raised alarm over the activities of unscrupulous individuals and criminal syndicates who are falsely presenting themselves as representatives, agents, or affiliates of the movement to defraud members of the public.
In a public notice, the movement disclosed that these impostors are engaging in various fraudulent financial solicitations, including false promises of federal employment opportunities in exchange for payments, deceptive schemes involving motorcycles or empowerment items upon payment of fees, fabricated distress calls for urgent financial assistance, and unauthorized campaign fundraising requests.
The statement emphasized that no individual, group, or intermediary is authorized to solicit funds, offer employment, or facilitate any empowerment schemes on behalf of the Tushima Senatorial Movement without explicit approval from the principal. Such actions constitute serious criminal offences, including impersonation, advance fee fraud (commonly known as “419”), obtaining by false pretence, and other related offences under Nigerian law.
The movement strongly advised the public to exercise extreme caution, verify all information before making any financial commitments, refrain from payments to unauthorized individuals, and promptly report suspicious approaches to law enforcement agencies.
Comr. Ernest Adzua, Media Coordinator of ZANET Media Team 4 Prof. Tushima, signed the cautionary advisory on March 31, 2026, reaffirming the movement’s commitment to integrity, transparency, and cooperation with security agencies to bring perpetrators to justice.
