ICPC Charges Lagos Travel Agent Over Forged UK Visa Documents
The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has arraigned Lagos-based visa agent Adediwura Adesina Stanley before the Lagos State High Court in Ikeja. Stanley faces allegations of conspiring to forge financial documents and using false papers to secure a United Kingdom visa. According to the ICPC, Stanley allegedly worked with two others—Olufemi Samuel Adewunmi and Oluwayemi Oyinkan—to produce a fake corporate payslip and bank statement. The agency says these forged documents were submitted to UK Visas and Immigration to mislead the authorities. Stanley is charged under Sections 516 and 467 of the Criminal Code Act and Sections 17(1)(c) and 25(1)(a) of the ICPC Act 2000. During his arraignment on March 11, 2026, defence counsel applied for bail, but the prosecution argued he could flee or tamper with witnesses. Justice I. Ijelu granted bail in the sum of ₦10 million with two sureties. One surety must be a blood relative in Lagos State. Both must show tax evidence, proof of livelihood, and address verification. Stanley must deposit his international passport and stay within Nigeria until trial resumes on April 1, 2026.
