Anti-graft agency says the suspects are wanted in connection with alleged financial crimes linked to activities in Nigeria and the United Kingdom.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared a foreign national and two other individuals wanted over alleged fraud-related offences spanning Nigeria and the United Kingdom.
The anti-graft agency announced the development through separate notices issued by its Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale. According to the EFCC, the suspects are being sought over allegations that include obtaining money by false pretence, criminal conversion of funds, and criminal breach of trust.
One of the individuals named by the commission is Emeka Iheanacho, 48, who the EFCC said is wanted in connection with alleged financial crimes involving obtaining money by false pretence and criminal conversion of funds. The commission also disclosed details of his last known address in the United Kingdom.
The declaration underscores the agency’s continued focus on financial crimes with international dimensions, particularly cases that extend beyond Nigeria’s borders.
The EFCC has appealed to members of the public with useful information on the whereabouts of the suspects to contact the commission through its offices nationwide.
