P P P Loan Fraud : It Is A Matter Of Mistaken Identity, Lola Kasali Says


A Texas woman who collected almost $2 million in Paycheck Protection Program loans amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic was arrested Tuesday by federal authorities on fraud allegations.

Lola Shalewa Barbara Kasali, of Houston, was charged with making false statements to a financial institution, wire fraud, bank fraud and engaging in unlawful monetary transactions, according to a U.S. Department of Justice statement.

But, a Nigerian woman Lola Kasali response is contrary to the news, according to her facebook post. She said the young lady mentioned and picture attached to the crime was due to the same first and last name .

"I would like to address and clarify a serious matter of an article that was recently published with my first and last name along with my picture concerning fraud. Many of you think that it is me but it is a matter of mistaken identity. A young 22-year-old lady who lives in Houston Texas and is named Lola Shalewa Barbara Kasali was arrested on Tuesday, September 15th for allegedly obtaining nearly $2 million in COVID Relief Funds fraudulently. She is currently detained by the federal government and the case is actively ongoing. However, there is a post about it with my picture that was obtained from my Facebook account attached to the story of the young lady circulating around the internet. This is defamation of my character since the person that wrote the article did not properly check his sources to make sure he had the right picture of the suspect in custody. I have never been to Texas, nor have I ever carried out any business of my own. I am employed and currently working from home. The police have been involved to make sure this is not identity theft! We are looking for the person who used my picture for a crime that has nothing to do with me and has caused grief and distress to my family and me. I just wanted to utilize this page to clear my name even though I haven’t used this account in years! I have attached the article for the arrest of this young woman and the image that is going around with my picture. Once again the young lady mentioned is NOT ME and my picture was obtained and attached to this crime due to the same first and last name without my knowledge".

  1. Keep fooling yourself, so the authorities are confused or what are you insinuating? And keep tarnishing the image of Nigeria, imagine a 22 year old with $1.9Million, rot in jail. 3rd world country or 3rd world mentality? I called it 3rd world mentality, they migrated with that mindset to continue to steal from anywhere and everywhere possible. Mistaken identity or someone stole your identity? Thunder fire you there stupid liar. When you investigate her well, you’ll find out she’s just the front, she has people behind her, she’s not the only one, do your investigation well.
