The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared a governorship aspirant in Bauchi State, Abdulahi Usman Adamu (alias Dan China) and a banker, Godswill Oyegwa Oyoyou, wanted for alleged N6.113 billion fraud.
Adamu is wanted for “obtaining” $500,000 USD (N85 million) from a Chinese Company, Shengjia International (HK) Limited “under false pretence”.
Oyoyou was allegedly involved in a N6.28 billion fraud.
In a statement yesterday, EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said: “The politician cum miner is wanted by the anti-graft agency for allegedly obtaining $500,000 USD from a Chinese company, Shengjia International (HK) Limited, under false pretence. He allegedly obtained the sum from the firm as part payment for the supply of 3000MT of lead ore, a contract he failed to execute.
“Following a petition by the Economic and Commercial Counsellor’s Office of the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China, the EFCC invited the suspect for questioning, but he failed to honour the invitation. The suspect is currently on the run, as efforts to track him, including several visits to his home in Narabi, Bauchi, proved futile.
“Consequently, the commission enjoins any one with useful information on his whereabouts to contact its head office in Wuse 2, Abuja, or zonal offices in Gombe, Kano, Enugu, Port Harcourt and Lagos, or the nearest police station. His last known address is No. 1, Sabon Gari, Narabi, in Toro Local Government Area of Bauchi State.”
EFCC said Oyoyou allegedly hacked into the database of his bank and stole N6.28 billion.
It said: “In the same vein, a banker, Godswill Oyegwa Oyoyou, an Information Technology staff of a new generation bank, is wanted by the EFCC in a case of fraud involving N6.28 billion.
“Oyoyou allegedly conspired with some scammers and obtained N6.28 billion from his bank after hacking into the bank’s database. The 38-year-old is from Isoko South Local Government Area of Delta State.”
