REPORT YOURSELF OR GET ARRESTED - FRAUD UNIT BOSS WARNS EZENWAJIAKU

The dust seems not to have settled over the allegation of fraud
levelled against former Anambra State Commissioner for Special Duties,
Vincent Ezenwajiaku.
At a briefing today in Lagos, the Commissioner of Police Special Fraud
Unit, Mr Tunde Ogunsakin, insisted that the accused person was
involved in a N10m fraud and should report to the unit or risk being
arrested.
It will be recalled that the former Anambra state Commissioner for
Special Duties, Mr. Vincent Ezenwajiaku, debunked the alleged story of
financial fraud brought against him by Mr. Mgbemena who he referred to
as his brother.
According to the former Commissioner, Mr. Mgbemena, who was a director
in NIMASA in 1998, on his own volition came to him and requested to be
a shareholder in his company, Bioplastics Industries Limited located
at Chief Vincent Ezenwajiaku Street, Ajao Estate, Isolo Lagos.
He said Mgbemena was a minority shareholder holding about 34 per cent
share while he controls over 70 per cent having set up the firm with
over 34 million naira in 1998, that Mr. Mgbemena, in paying up for his
share, did that in a trickle for three years, paying only N8.1
million.
In the year 2000, Mr.Mgbemena willingly opted out of the business and
suggested that the company be audited.
The auditors, Tony Nonyerem Enyinaya and company were consulted after
which it was resolved that he should pay Mr. Mgbemena the sum of N7.5
million, and the company folded up in 2001.
Due to a strange illness diagnosed as Stress Induced Nerve Disorder,
he was out of business and could not pay Mr. Mgbemena, but all the
while had been in constant communication with Mr. Mgbemena.
He said when he resuscitated his business again; his foreign debt
totalling N30 million had to be settled first.
At the verge of commencing the payment, Mr. Mgbemena who had already
sworn to dent his image, having being made a commissioner, sent the
men of Special Fraud Unit (SFU) from Lagos after him, who kept
attempting to arrest him leading to his obtaining a court order under
the enforcement of fundamental human rights on August 23rd restraining
them from arresting him.
Mr. Ezenwajiaku also promised to tender his resignation to the
Anamabra state governor, a thing he has since done but insisted that
he will pursue the case against Mr, Mgbemena, and would be claiming
250 million naira in damages, and that every kobo of the N7.5 million
will be paid to Mr. Mgbemena.
