That the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu has ordered the withdrawal of police escorts attached to the chairman, Five Star Group, Emeka Okonkwo alias E-Money is no longer news. What is perhaps news is the real reasons why the police IG gave the order.
We learnt that the IG ordered the withdrawal of the six policemen from B operations, Command Headquarters in Lagos, following allegations of misuse of the escorts by the flamboyant businessman.
E- Money who is the brother of star artist Kingsley Okonkwo alias K-Cee had become the subject of a police investigation for his ostentatious lifestyle.
We gathered that the IGP directed the Lagos Police Command to commence investigation into the young billionaire’s sources of income following allegations that he used his police escorts like domestic servants and spends money as if going out of fashion
“ Yes, the IGP has ordered us to investigate E-Money and we shall carry out our investigations to the best of our ability without fear or favour, his source of wealth will be investigated and if found to be unclean, he will be prosecuted” a source who craved for anonymity informed this reporter
The policemen, said to be drawn from B Operations, command headquarters, were alleged to have reduced themselves to carrying umbrellas, handbags and even doing other menial jobs for E-Money and his household.
E-Money was alleged to have turned the six policemen attached to him to domestic staff who run errands such as opening doors, carrying bags and doing other other menial jobs.
