The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested popular Lagos socialite, Emeka Okonkwo Daniel, also known as E-Money, for allegedly abusing the Naira.
It gathered that he was picked up by operatives of the commission on Monday night at his residence in Lagos.
The socialite is facing allegations of Naira abuse and the defacement of foreign currencies, linked to his alleged act of spraying UK pounds sterling —an offence under Nigeria’s Foreign Exchange Act.
The EFCC stated it has commenced preliminary investigations and plans to charge E-Money to court upon conclusion of its inquiry.
It also learnt that he has been flown to Abuja for further interrogation by EFCC investigators.
The alleged currency spraying reportedly took place at Obi Cubana’s birthday.
