The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Makurdi Zonal Directorate, has arrested Dr. Mkor Aondona, the Special Adviser to the Benue State Governor on Documentation, Research, and Planning, over alleged involvement in sextortion, cyber bullying, and blackmail.
Aondona was picked up on Friday, June 20, 2025, in Makurdi following a series of complaints from female students who accused him of sexual exploitation and digital harassment.
According to the petitioners, the governor’s aide allegedly exploited his office by recruiting young, slim, and attractive girls for ushering jobs on the condition that they submit to sexual advances.
Several of the victims claimed that after being coerced into intimate encounters, they later discovered that the acts had been secretly recorded without their consent.
The suspect was said to have used the recorded content to blackmail the victims into further sexual acts, threatening to leak the videos if they refused to comply. Some of the explicit clips are reportedly already circulating on social media and private messaging platforms.
The EFCC confirmed that the suspect is in custody and will be arraigned in court upon the conclusion of investigations.
