Trouble may be brewing for flamboyant businessman E-Money as the police has been directed to probe him while withdrawing his escorts.
According to The Punch, the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, ordered the probe of the Chairman of Five Star Group, Emeka Okonkwo a.k.a. E-Money over his flamboyant lifestyle and alleged flagrant abuse of his police escorts.
E-Money, the brother of Nigerian artist Kcee (real name Kingsley Okonkwo), got on the bad side of the police boss for reportedly using policemen like domestic servants.
An order has been issued to the Lagos State Police Command to withdraw the six police escorts attached to the businessman.
A high-ranking police officer made the following comments:
We received a signal from the Force headquarters on Monday that the police detail of music executive E-Money be immediately withdrawn and an investigation into the man be launched.
The IG was surprised that the policemen were attached to him in the first place and were being used like domestic servants, carrying umbrellas, opening doors and doing menial jobs for him.
The policemen were discovered to be attached to B Operations at the Command headquarters and not MOPOL which is the usual practice.
So, we’ve withdrawn his policemen and we are inviting him for questioning. The policemen will also be interrogated.”
When reached on the telephone, an associate of E-Money, Chidozie Dike, said he was not aware of the development and he believed it was not true.
