The Gombe Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has apprehended Ibrahim Abubakar, the Managing Director of Shariff Agric and General Service in Jos, Plateau State, for an alleged fraud of N57.5 million.
Abubakar was taken into custody on October 6, 2023, for purportedly misappropriating N57.5 million mistakenly transferred to his company’s account, Shariff Agric and General Services, for personal use.
Baker Drilling Service erroneously transferred N57.5 million to the account of Shariff Agric and General Services instead of Bluemoe Trade & Service. Both accounts are held at the United Bank for Africa (UBA).
Upon being notified by the bank of the mistaken deposit, Abubakar allegedly transferred Five Million Naira (N5,000,000.00) each to his personal accounts in UBA and Keystone banks. Subsequent attempts to withdraw the remaining amount resulted in his arrest.
Once investigations are concluded, he will face charges in court.
