Some Nigerians have asked security agencies to go after some celebrities, among whom are David Adeleke, popularly known as Davido, Divine Ikubor, better known as Rema, and Williams Uchemba for endorsing and promoting a Ponzi scheme company, RackSterli, which has allegedly defrauded many unsuspecting Nigerians.
There were viral videos of the celebrities adverting the platform, making people to invest in it.
Davido in one of the videos said, “I wanna introduce you guys to one of the biggest investment platforms in Nigeria. There are a lot of opportunities over there… It has been very, very reliable for the past six months. We’ve had great recommendations.”

The Ponzi-like initiative, owned by one Chidi, popularly known as Blackgold, offers its subscribers different packages, including Standard, Diamond, Premium, Ruby, Platinum, Emerald, Gold up to Topaz. They are 11 in separate packages.
A check on www.racksterli.org on Saturday showed the RackSterli’s website has crashed, leaving investors due for payment stranded.
This has prompted some investors who are yet to get a return after investing last year to blast the celebrities for promoting it.
“All the celebrities that endorsed the scheme should be arrested too. Davido, Williams Uchemba supported the brand and they got us into this. Now the so-called Racksteri investment ran away with our money after buying himself a Brand New G. Wagon days after his accident,” Akintunde Mayowa Johnson told SaharaReporters.
