The Dansoman Circuit Court is currently charging Ghanaian artist Christopher Nelson, better known by his stage as Mr. Logic, with scamming a US citizen and his family.
The monies involved in the alleged fraud are $21,000.00 and GH₵48,000.
According to The Chronicle, Mr. Logic is charged with conducting the scam while posing as a residence visa applicant. He has been given GH₵400,000 bail with three sureties after entering a not guilty plea.
Khori Edward Lewis, the fraud victim, is a musician and citizen of the United States who lives in Pantang. Monica Spence, claiming to be Mr. Logic’s manager, presented Lewis and his family to Mr. Logic on their tour to Ghana.
The alleged deception began when Mr. Logic allegedly told Lewis that he could pay for a resident visa that would allow him to live and work in Ghana.
Lewis informed the police about the case on May 11, 2024.
According to the Ghana Immigration Service’s research, each resident permit costs $1,000.08, the court was told.
Mr. Logic, who is well-known for showing off his wealth on the internet, recently bought a new home and posted pictures of it on social media, giving YouTuber Zionfelix a tour.
Mr. Logic stated in the interview that he spends GH₵8,000 every day on average.
