The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has handed over ₦108 million recovered during the investigation of an alleged fraud case to Greenwich Planet Sun King Nigeria Limited in Lagos.
The recovered funds, presented in bank drafts, were returned on Wednesday by the EFCC’s Lagos Zonal Directorate 2 after investigations into allegations of abuse of office, forgery, stealing and diversion of company funds involving two former employees.
According to the Commission, the suspects, Nkechi Gladys Megai, who is reportedly at large after fleeing to the United Kingdom, and Godson Eze, a former Chief Financial Officer of the company, allegedly abused their positions by forging documents, creating fake invoices in the names of legitimate vendors and diverting company funds through fraudulent transactions over a period of time.
The EFCC said its investigation revealed that the fraudulent payments amounted to several hundreds of millions of naira.
Speaking during the handover ceremony, the Acting Zonal Director of the EFCC Lagos Zonal Directorate 2, Assistant Commander of the EFCC (ACE I) Bawa Usman Kaltungo, reaffirmed the Commission’s commitment to ensuring justice for victims of economic and financial crimes.
He said the EFCC would continue to pursue the recovery of stolen assets and ensure that those responsible are held accountable.
Kaltungo also disclosed that efforts were ongoing to apprehend all individuals connected to the alleged fraud, including suspects who have fled the country.
“Efforts are ongoing to ensure that all persons connected with the fraud, including those who have fled the country, are brought to justice in accordance with the law,” he said.
Receiving the recovered funds on behalf of the company, the legal representatives of Greenwich Planet Sun King Nigeria Limited commended the EFCC for its thorough investigation and professionalism.
They expressed appreciation to the Commission for recovering the funds, noting that the money would help reduce the financial losses suffered by the company as a result of the alleged fraud.
