E-Money, who is a well-known figure in Nigerian social circles, is the Chief Executive Officer of Emmy Cargoes Nigeria Limited and Five Star Music.
Daily Sun gathered that E-Money’s arrest is connected to allegations of naira abuse and defacement of foreign currencies levelled against him by the commission.
The socialite was said to have sprayed US dollars, an act that contravenes Nigeria’s Foreign Exchange (Monitoring and Miscellaneous Provisions) Act.
The EFCC has not confirmed the development.
