It is not yet known why, but celebrity businessman and socialite, Obinna Iyiegbu, popular as Obi Cubana, was on Monday, November 1, a guest at the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s, (EFCC) Abuja Headquarters.
Speculation, however, is that he was arrested for alleged money laundering and tax invasion issues.
Cubana, reportedly, arrived the EFCC Headquarters just before 11.00am, and was still being grilled by operatives, 10 hours after his arrival.
Cubana entered national consciousness after the multi-billion Naira funeral of his mother in his Oba, Anambra State community.
After the funeral which overshadowed everything that period, he allegedly splashed the sum of N300m on 300 Oba youths to enable them start off any business venture of their choice.
Since then, he has been rated as one of Nigeria’s multi-billionaires and philanthropists. He has, also, since then been garnering awards, and hosting high profile parties.
It could not be confirmed if he passed the night within the EFCC facility, or released on bail.
There has, however,been no confirmation of his arrest by the EFCC.
