The Economic and financial crimes commission, reportedly raided the Headquarters of Access bank and arrested the bank’s MD, Herbert Wigwe.
Wigwe is believed to have been arrested over the role he played in the huge sums of cash laundered through the bank by officials of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA).
An EFCC source who pleaded anonymity revealed that the Access Bank MD received $5 million routed through Zenith Bank. However, the EFCC is yet to make official statement on the matter.
It is also not clear if Wigwe has been released from detention at the time of filing this report.
