Ex-bank manager faces N561m fraud trial

Oladimeji Ramon

The Police Special Fraud Unit has charged an ex-manager with Ecobank, Ifeanyi Azike, with an alleged fraud of N561m.
Azike has been arraigned on two counts before the Federal High Court in Lagos.
The police accused him of fraudulently obtaining N150m from one Mr Okafor Kelvin, a customer of the bank, on the claim that he would help him purchase the Federal Government Treasury Bill in Ecobank.
The police further alleged that Azike converted a sum of N411m belonging to the bank and its customers to his own.
The prosecuting counsel for the police, Daniel Apochi, told Justice Ayokunle Faji last week that Azike committed the offences between 2016 and 2017.
He said the defendant acted contrary to sections 1 (1) (a), 15(1)(2) and 15(2)of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud related Offence Act No. 14 of 2006, and was liable to be punished under Section 1 (3) of the same Act.
