Operatives from the Makurdi Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission have apprehended the Special Adviser to the Benue State Governor on Documentation, Research, and Planning, Dr. Mkor Aondona, over allegations of sextortion and cyberbullying.
The EFCC confirmed Aondona’s arrest took place on Friday, June 20, 2025, in Makurdi, the capital of Benue State.
His arrest follows a series of complaints from female students who accused him of engaging in criminal misconduct, including sexual exploitation, blackmail, and online harassment.
In a statement released on its verified Facebook page on Saturday, the anti-graft agency said the complainants claimed that Aondona had a pattern of targeting slim and attractive young women by offering them ushering roles with hidden demands.
“Based on this, they became vulnerable to having sexual affairs with him but unknown to them, he had videos of every sexual act without their consent and was always threatening to leak the videos if they refused to continue having sex with him,” the EFCC said.
The statement further revealed that the governor’s aide was also accused of distributing the explicit content.

“Aondona was also alleged to be involved in blackmail, sending explicit videos of the girls allegedly recorded without their knowledge or consent through several messaging platforms. Some of the videos are said to be in circulation,” the Commission added.
EFCC disclosed that Dr. Aondona would be arraigned in court as investigations progress.
