The Ogun State Police Com-mand said, yesterday, that it has arrested a 50-year-old fake Colonel Hassan Ayinde for claiming to be ADC to President President Goodluck Jonathan.

“The traditional ruler became suspicious of him when he claimed to be the ADC to the president and begging for money to purchase ram for sallah; and the traditional ruler immediately informed the police and he was arrested.

“On interrogation, Mr Hassan confessed to be a dismissed Air Force officer of the Federal Republic of Nigeria but impersonates Colonel to make ends meet. He said he attended the military school in 1979 and posted to Zuru Kebbi State as last corporal; and that he attended the Nigeria Defence Academy in 1980 and passed out in 1985.

“The fake colonel said he worked with the presidency in 1997 before he was dismissed in the year 1999 as a Wing Commander.

“The suspect, who claims to be residing at the National Defence College, is cooling his feet in our custody and will be charged to court at the end of our investigation.
