Police retrieve N50m stolen from Mr Ibu, charge son, lover to court.
The arrest and subsequent court charges, citing conspiracy and theft, came after a petition lodged by Diamond Waves Law on behalf of Mr. Ibu’s wife, Stella Maris Okafor, dated September 6, 2023.
Allegations in the petition suggested a complex scheme involving Mr. Ibu’s sons, Daniel and Valentine Okafor, along with Jasmine Okekeagwu, aimed at defrauding the actor.
According to ASP Mayegun Aminat, spokesperson for the FCID, investigations uncovered a web of deceit wherein Onyeabuchi Daniel Okafor and Jasmine Chioma Okekeagwu allegedly exploited Mrs. Stella Maris Okafor’s trust, gaining unauthorized access to Mr. Ibu’s phone and subsequently his banking information.
Utilizing this illicit access, the perpetrators orchestrated fraudulent transfers totaling N55 million from the public fundraising account intended for Mr. Ibu’s medical expenses to Daniel Okafor’s personal bank account.
