The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has reportedly detained a popular socialite and entrepreneur, Obinna Iyiegbu, widely known as Obi Cubana, according to Premium Times.
Sources who have knowledge of the case told PREMIUM TIMES that the Anambra-born business tycoon arrived the headquarters of the EFCC at Jabi, Abuja at about 12 p.m. on Monday.
As of the time of filing this case, he was still being interrogated by operatives of the commission, according to the sources who asked not to be named because they had no authority to talk to the press about the case.
Though allegations against the socialite were sketchy as of press time, the sources disclosed that his case borders on alleged money laundering and tax fraud.
When contacted, the spokeperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, said he had yet to be briefed on the development.
