The Lagos Zonal Office of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC, has arrested three bankers for an alleged case of
conspiracy, stealing, forgery and obtaining money by false
pretence.

The suspects, Kagha Emmanuel Uchenna, Okoro Chinasom Davidson
and Egbogu Emmanuel Obiora, who are employees of one of the new
generation banks, allegedly conspired and defrauded a customer of
the bank of the sum of N51, 978, 883. 37 (Fifty-one Million, Nine
Hundred and Seventy-eight Thousand, Eight Hundred and Eighty-three
