Tobechukwu claims that his brother received an unexpected N400,000 deposit in his account on June 6 and called his bank to inquire as he hadn’t expected that kind of money.
He claimed that although his brother requested a return from the bank, they refused to give him access to the account.
His brother later received a letter from the Force Criminal Investigation Department FCID Alagbon asking him to come for questioning.
He tweeted;
“THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!
My brother just got picked up by a team of @PoliceNG from his office some minutes ago.
Apparently, he received a strange alert on his phone of N400,000 two days ago. He reported to his bank to know what happened & it should be returned, but no reasonable response was given.
The following day he got a letter to be at FCID Alagbon, which he went with his lawyer this morning.
They were told it is an ongoing investigation of a 10million naira stolen from the account of a kidnapped man by kidnappers.
The 10m was distributed to several other accounts; & unfortunately he is one of those picked up this afternoon by men of the @PoliceNG from Ibadan, Oyo state.
Another person is being picked from Agege too before heading to Ibadan.
I have got so many questions…
Where did the kidnappers get the account?
Aslo this is an account this is dormant. He doesn’t use the account.”
