Embattled Ghanaian socialite Frederick Kumi, popularly known as Abu Trica, has revealed that EOCO has still confiscated all his luxury vehicles.
According to Abu Trica, EOCO has confiscated his Lamborghini Urus, Cybertruck, and BMW.
Speaking in an interview with Captain Smart on Onua TV, Abu Trica stated, “My cars, Lamborghini Urus, Tesla Cybertruck, and BMW i8, are still with EOCO”.
Also, Abu Trica has broken his silence on the claimed $8 million fraud levelled against him.
According to Abu Trica, there is no such thing as an $8 million claim in the case against him, arguing that the foreigners themselves admitted they gave him $13,000.
He further argued that he was set up, revealing that while he was in custody, two foreigners attempted to set him up during interrogation, claiming they had evidence against him.
Abu Trica argued, saying, “There is no such thing as an $8 million claim in the case against me. They themselves admitted they gave me $13,000”.
“The reason behind how the $8 million came about is that they came to arrest me and pick me up at night to NACOC cells. While in the cells, they came and told me that some men needed to interrogate me. It was a dark conference room, and I saw five men, three of whom were white and two were black,” he stated.
“They placed some documents in front of me, not knowing it was a setup orchestrated by themselves,” he said.
“The informant told me to provide an account for them because they knew it did not belong to me. They wanted me to mention the name of the account owner, which I refused to do. They became furious and threatened to charge me with taking $8 million instead of the initial $1 million claim against me,” he disclosed.
“I thought it was a joke. How can a foreigner treat me like that in my own country and threaten me?” he said.
It will be recalled that Abu Trica took to social media to brag after securing a GH¢30 million bail over his alleged involvement in an $8 million romance scam.
According to Abu Trica, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is not God, adding that just like the Ghana Police, when they make an allegation, they must prove it.
He further added that it doesn’t matter whether people see him as a fraudster or not.
Abu Trica, who took to Snapchat on May 18, 2026, bragged, saying, “For those of you suffering from an inferiority complex, just know that the FBI is not God.
Just like the Ghana Police, when they make an allegation, they must prove it. It doesn’t matter whether you see Abu Trica as a fraudster or not”.
Meanwhile, his lawyer, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, some months ago were he detailed how a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agent set up his client.
According to Oliver Barker-Vormawor, Abu Trica was set up by an FBI informant who approached him, saying that he was expecting some 50,000 dollars.
He alleged that the FBI informant asked Abu Trica to help find a bank account for them to transfer the money into, where he would receive 13,000 dollars if he found an account.
In a post on X, Oliver Barker-Vormawor wrote, “Let’s Talk Abu Trica.
Abu Trica was set up by an FBI informant who approached him, saying that he was expecting some 50,000 dollars. And that Abu Trica should help find a bank account for them to transfer the money into.
His share would be 13,000 dollars if he found an account. Abu Trica went around asking different people because he thought he was making 13,000 dollars. Someone gave him an account, which he gave to the FBI undercover agents. And he was paid 13,000 dollars”.
He added, “This is the entire evidence the FBI provided. When Abu was arrested, the FBI came to him to give them the name of the person whose account it was.
Abu didn’t. Before the matter went to court, they had EOCO issued a press statement claiming that Abu had scammed people of 8 million dollars. There is no 8 million USD anywhere. We are here because of 13,000 dollars”.
Barker-Vormawor disclosed that Abu Trica was charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud, “Now Abu was charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud. We presented the magistrate with 80 pages of legal argument, tracing the history of the Extradition Treaty, showing that the offence of conspiracy is not an extraditable offence.
Now, the matter is under appeal, so I won’t say more than that. Except that in my whole life, I have never met a judge so eager to extradite a person before. Complete refusal to follow due process. Her mind was made up from day 1.
The truth is, out of 200 requests Ghanaian has received, all 200 have been extradited by our courts. 200-0 oo. If our Courts are willing to follow the law, not be afraid of America, Abu’s case will be 200-1”.
