Uju Kingsley Chima, a member of the House of Representatives accused of raping a woman, Nkeiruka Cynthia Kamalu, in 2015 has denied the allegation.<\/p>\n
Chima, who is the currently representing Ohaji\/Egbema, Oguta and Oru West Federal Constituency of Imo State at the House of Reps described Kamalu as a liar and serial fraudster out to extort money from him.<\/p>\n
The federal lawmaker said Kamalu was trying to divert attention from her two N40 million fraud cases at a high and magistrate\u2019s court in Owerri, the Imo State capital, the Nation reports.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a pure case of fraud, someone who has been defrauding for years. Pure case of fraud! She even defrauded my friend to the tune of over N10 million. (There is) evidence, complete evidence!\u201d, Chima said.<\/p>\n
The lawmaker also debunked claims by Kamalu that she was pregnant for him and had the baby in Canada through In vitro fertilization (IVF).<\/p>\n
Chima said: \u201cNow, you are a man, let me ask you a question: somebody that said you raped her in 2015, and in 2018, the same person came and said she had birth (sic) for you: Is it possible?<\/p>\n
\u201cThe same person that said you raped her in 2015 came back in 2018 and said you asked her to go and adopt a child for you: is it possible?<\/p>\n
\u201cThis girl came up on the 12th of December that she was pregnant. I said \u2018did I impregnate you?\u2019 She said \u2018No\u2019, that she did IVF. I said \u2018I have never had anything, I have never had intercourse, how could you now come up to say I impregnated you? How? Is it by air?\u2019 She said she did IVF. Because she knew I was running an election the next month, that was in February. She wanted to extort money from me through that means.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Nation reports that in a court documents seen by them, Kamalu said her adopted baby died of ill-health in Lagos on April 30, 2019, attaching a purported Lagos State Government issued death certificate.<\/p>\n
Speaking further he said: \u201cWhen I couldn\u2019t hold it, I personally went and reported to the police: \u2018Look at what is transpiring.\u2019 The police, on its own, went into investigation, discovered, not even me, discovered, I didn\u2019t know that she bought a child in Enugu and the child died in Lagos.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, you can see the level of fraud that she has been perpetrating. All her statements are evidenced, even in the courts she stood in the dock and was saying all of these things. That was in Owerri. The magistrate was so angry and remanded her. They released her this month or last month only for her to tell a story that I raped her.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis lady has been doing this. Trying to use that way to extort money from me and when I realised her mischievous attitude, the matter was reported to the police and the police went into investigation. It was the police that even discovered that this lady even bought a child in Enugu, trying to use the child to cover up the pregnancy she said she lost, because she said she was pregnant, when she was not.<\/p>\n
\u201cShe wasn\u2019t pregnant, she claimed I should pay her, is it $45,000? That she had the child in Canada, twins. She was using a Canadian line to call. She even forged a visa, a Canadian visa, that she was in Canada already, that I should send money to her in Canada.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhere will I get $45,000 to send to her? I quickly ran to the police, but before then I had already reported her to the SSS (State Security Service) for fraud, but because I was running an election, they said I should play along so that I can have tangible things against her, which happened.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI can confidently tell you that this girl is a serial fraudster and serial liar. I do not in any way have any agreement of buying any house for this girl. I do not in any way have an agreement of giving her N20 million every six months. If she has any evidence that I made an agreement to give her a house, she should show where the agreement was written.<\/p>\n

Her matter is in court, the child trafficking case is in court in Owerri. One is in Magistrates\u2019 Court Owerri, one is in High Court Owerri.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, running down to Lagos to go and file a fundamental rights suit. It\u2019s ridiculous and, mind you, I\u2019m a politician and my political opponents too are at work.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
