The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), said Friday that it has arrested a “self-acclaimed pastor” and Chief Executive Officer of Chemtronics Nigeria Limited, Mr. Jonathan Ibinabo Alatoru, over alleged conspiracy, forgery and obtaining money by false pretence to the tune of N200m
A statement by the Head of Media and Publicity of the Commission, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said the suspect was arrested in a sting operation by operatives.
According to the EFCC, the 55-year-old suspect, who it said had jumped an administrative bail earlier granted him, was “awarded a contract by the Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs, Abuja for the construction of a skill acquisition centre at Igualeba, Orhiomwon LGA, in Edo State, to the tune of N1.7billion.”
It further noted that: “The contract, which was supposed to be completed within a year, was, however, terminated in 2011 when he could not complete the structure 18 months after.”
