 Nigerian makes US Most Wanted List over $1m fraud A Nigerian, Onoriode Ezewu, has been named on the United States Department of Labour’s first-ever Most Wanted List over allegations of money laundering involving fraudulent unemployment benefit claims worth more than $1m. The department’s Office of Inspector General unveiled the list on its website on Wednesday, naming 16 fugitives wanted in cases involving alleged fraud, identity theft, money laundering, labour trafficking and other offences. According to the agency, the cases collectively involve more than $55m allegedly stolen from American taxpayers.

PRINCE HARRY'S $20 MILLION LEGAL BATTLE TAKES NEW TURN AS ELTON JOHN SAYS NO: 'I AM NOT A BANK'. (PHOTO).


 Prince Harry's $20 million legal battle takes new turn as Elton John says no: 'I am not a bank'


Prince Harry’s return to the U.K. to promote the 2027 Invictus Games was overshadowed by a major legal defeat. The High Court ruled against him in his privacy lawsuit against the publisher of the Daily Mail, leaving the Duke of Sussex with nearly $20 million in legal costs. 


The case, which he pursued alongside Elton John, Elizabeth Hurley, Sadie Frost, and others, alleged that the publisher had illegally gathered private information through methods such as phone hacking and hidden surveillance.


Reports initially suggested that Elton John, a longtime friend of Princess Diana and close to Harry, might help cover the staggering bill. However, journalist Paula Froelich claimed the singer has no intention of stepping in, with a source bluntly stating, “I am not an ATM.” 


The source added that John was frustrated by the request and noted that, despite his wealth, he is “a little tapped out right now.” This refusal has fueled speculation about Harry’s finances, particularly given the couple’s multimillion‑dollar annual security costs and mortgages on their Montecito estate.


The setback has reportedly caused tension within the Sussex household, with insiders suggesting Meghan Markle opposed the lawsuit from the start and may be angered by the mounting fees. 


Harry’s financial challenges are now under renewed scrutiny, especially as his ties to Elton John who performed at his wedding and famously honored Diana at her funeral appear strained. 


The outcome of the case not only leaves Harry with a heavy financial burden but also raises questions about the sustainability of the Sussexes’ lifestyle and legal battles.
