E -Money, Emeka Okonkwo, Under Investigation; Police Queries Lifestyle, Abuse Of Orderly

By Akinwale Kasali

Nobody can put a finger to what exactly sparked off the investigation. But flamboyant, young money-man, popular as E-money, is in trouble.

Okonkwo is, allegedly, being investigated by the police on the orders of the Inspector General of Police, Mohamed Adamu.

Reports say the IGP was embarrassed by the number of Policemen – six –  attached to Okonkwo, and wondered how he got them. He has, therefore, ordered an investigation and the withdrawal of the Policemen.

But according to reports, Okonkwo may have triggered his problem by his lifestyle. Reportedly very rich, he lives his life to the fullest.

But his problem may have started by his alleged misuse of the Policemen attached to him. Unconfirmed reports claim he reduced them to domestic servants, doing menial jobs for him, including opening doors and shielding him with umbrellas.

Confirming the withdrawal of the Policemen, the Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Lagos State Command, DSP Bala Elkana, told The Punch on Tuesday, ” I can confirm that E-Money’s policemen have been withdrawn. We were ordered to do so, and the directive has been complied with. I do not know the reason for the order at this time.

Okonkwo is the Chairman of Five Star Group, and a brother to Musician, Kingsley Okonkwo, popular as K-Cee.
