Mr Ikeji
By Chinedum Treasure
Detained businessman, Henry Nzube Ikeji, has denied involvement in an alleged fraud case in which a Romanian woman was reportedly duped of $2.5 million by someone posing as a Dubai Crown Prince.
Ikeji, currently in custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), was named in a report by the National Cybercrime Centre. However, in a statement by his media adviser, Chinyere James, he insisted he is a victim of mistaken identity.
He maintained that the EFCC investigation does not indict him and said the ₦155 million traced to his accounts came from legitimate business dealings, backed by a registered Memorandum of Understanding.
His aide expressed optimism that ongoing investigations would clear him.
