Ex Sterling Bank Director, Yemi Idowu alongside Lagos Prince Eletu-Odibo declared wanted
Former Sterling Bank Director, Yemi Idowu and Prince Gbadamosi Eletu-Odibo have allegedly been declared wanted.
OnyxNews Nigeria gathered that a special offence court has ordered the arrest of a former Sterling Bank director, Yemi Idowu, and a popular socialite, Prince Waheed Gbadamosi Eletu-Odibo.
This online news platform also gathered that the former Sterling Bank director and the Lagos Prince are facing the wrath of the law for collaboratively and intentionally stealing another person’s property.
The charges before Justice Sherifat Solebo of the Special Offences Court, which resulted in the bench warrant for the arrest, shows that Idowu and Prince Eletu-Odibo were reportedly accused of conspiracy, stealing, and unlawful conversion of landed property belonging to one Ononenyi Patrick Okonkwo.
It was learned that Okonkwo owned over 250,000 hectares of land that the former Sterling Bank director and the Lagos Prince purportedly adopted as their own properties and sold it off around 2013 and 2016. The plots of land allegedly located around Crystal Road, Osapa London, Lekki, Eti Osa Local Government Area of Lagos.
Apart from allegedly obtaining the land from Okonkwo, reports have it that the former Sterling Bank director and the Lagos Prince were also accused of ignoring court call.
OnyxNews Nigeria learned that the whole scenario started when the two counter-charge accused the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) of breaching their fundamental human rights in the process of filing charges against them.
Reason Former Sterling Bank Director was declared wanted
It was learned that the anti-graft agency revealed that the court already ruled against them and that there was no violation of human rights, this was even as it required that Idowu and Prince Eletu-Odibo make themselves available and at the behest of Justice Solebo and her Court.
But, Yemi Idowu and Prince Waheed Gbadamosi Eletu-Odibo failed to show up, hence the bench warrant declaring them wanted.
