Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade Arrested by FBI Over Alleged Election-Related Hoax.

Colorado Springs Mayor Yemi Mobolade has been arrested by the FBI over allegations of orchestrating a staged incident to bolster his electoral chances.

According to a report by The Daily Wire, federal authorities have referred Mayor Mobolade for prosecution, accusing him of making false statements in connection with a h+te crime hoax.

The incident was allegedly intended to garner sympathy and increase voter turnout during his campaign. On November 12, the acting U.S. attorney for the District of Colorado announced charges against three of Mobolade’s supporters—Derrick Bernard Jr., Ashley Blackcloud, and Deanna West.

They are accused of defacing one of his campaign signs with a r+cial slur and setting up a b cross near the site. Reports indicate that the group allegedly recorded the incident and shared it with media outlets to sway public opinion and encourage higher Black voter turnout for Mobolade

FBI arrests notorious yahoo boy ‘Bobo Chicago’ for alleged $2.8M fr@ud

The U.S. FBI last week arrested 25-year-old Oluyomi Omobolanle Bombata, popularly known as ‘Bobo Chicago’ or ‘Bola Flexx,’ for allegedly sc+mming companies and individuals of up to $2.8 million.

Bobo Chicago, famed for his extravagant lifestyle, was apprehended on November 20 in Illinois, Chicago, following an arrest warrant issued in Oklahoma.

People Gazette reports that investigations linked him to multiple criminal complaints, leading to a five-count charge, including wire fraud, conspiracy, money laundering, and unlawful monetary transactions committed between June and October 2023.

Before relocating to Chicago, he reportedly terr%rised Nigerians living in the Houston metro area. From Chicago, he was transferred to Oklahoma, where he allegedly orchestrated the fraud.

Federal agents revealed that he hacked into accounts in the Eastern District of Oklahoma and funneled over $300,000 of stolen funds to a popular U.S. liquor store, implicating the owner.

Bobo Chicago claimed he lacked the financial resources to fight the charges, prompting the court to assign him a public defender. His co-conspirator remains in custody as investigations continue.
