The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission has arrested the Managing Director and Chief Executive
Officer of Fidelity Bank Plc, Mr. Nnamdi Okonkwo, and some officials for
allegedly receiving $115m from a former Minister of Petroleum
Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
The EFCC also arrested the bank’s Head
of Operations, Mr. Martins Izuogbe, for his role in the alleged scam,
which the anti-graft agency described as unprecedented.
