Sapphire Egemasi, the Nigerian tech enthusiast popularly
known as “tech queen”, projected a lavish lifestyle before her arrest in the US
by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
Before her arrest in April on allegations of wire fraud and
identity theft, the 28-year-old Egemasi portrayed herself online as a
tech-savvy and financially liberated woman.
But her social media footprint is a visual diary of
globetrotting, luxury, and the soft life.
The tech queen’s travel history, as curated on her X
account, spanned some of the world’s most desirable destinations, including
Portugal, Italy, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), France, Germany, the
Netherlands, Croatia, Montenegro, Greece, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Belgium, and
Luxembourg.
In her posts, she shared stays at upscale accommodations,
fine dining experiences, and visits to exclusive landmarks.
However, the glamorous facade unravelled when Egemasi was
arrested in connection with a large-scale fraud scheme targeting multiple US
government agencies.
Investigations revealed that she allegedly played a role in
designing spoof websites to impersonate official US government domains,
facilitating the theft of millions of dollars.
Egemasi is currently in federal custody in Lexington,
Kentucky, awaiting trial. If convicted, she faces up to 20 years in prison,
restitution payments, and possible deportation.
