Nigerian couple entrepreneurs, Gloria Igberaese and Muyiwa Folorunsho have been declared wanted by Interpol over their involvement in multi-million dollar investment fraud, People Gazette is reporting.

The entrepreneurs are said to be the CEOs of Divergent Enterprise operating businesses such as Landlagos, PorkMoney, Hyberfactory and Porkoyum, among other companies that they allegedly used to fleece thousands of Nigerians in a slew of Ponzi schemes linked to them.
