The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has announced a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Nigerian national, Olumide Adebiyi Adediran, wanted for Violation of Conditions of Release.

According to the FBI, Adediran absconded from the Central District of Illinois in late December 2001, shortly before his federal trial was scheduled to begin.

He was facing multiple charges, including Bank Fraud, Identification Document Fraud, and Credit Card Fraud.

The charges highlight his alleged involvement in financial crimes often linked to coordinated schemes designed to defraud individuals and institutions.

Authorities explained that Violation of Conditions of Release occurs when a defendant, freed under bail or supervised release, willfully breaks the terms of that release—in this case, by fleeing to evade trial.

The FBI described Adediran as a fugitive and considers him a significant flight risk who deliberately avoided the judicial process.
