The Nigeria Police high command has concluded its investigations into the high-profile case of corporate fraud involving three Ghanaian nationals—Samuel Esson Jonah, Kojo Mensah Ansah, and Victor Quainoo—and a Nigerian accomplice, Abu Arome.
The suspects are being accused of orchestrating a sophisticated conspiracy to fraudulently assume control of Jonah Capital Nigeria Limited and its interests in Houses for Africa Nigeria Limited and River Park Estate.
Addressing newsmen in Abuja, police spokesman, ACP Muyiwa Adejobi revealed that in-depth investigations revealed that the accused had illegally increased the company’s share capital and allocated 99 million shares to themselves using falsified documents and forged signatures, also falsely presenting themselves as Nigerian citizens to the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) to facilitate their fraudulent activities.
Galaxy television reports that Adejobi said contrary to claims in some media circles, the suspects have not been exonerated by any panel of the Nigeria Police adding that despite multiple invitations which they have refused to honor, they have instead resorted to launching smear campaigns against the person and office of the Inspector-General of Police, the Nigeria Police Force, and the investigating officers, and also filing of baseless legal actions against the Police Force.
He added that Ghanaian High Commission has been notified in line with diplomatic protocols while the Police Force will now proceed with prosecution of the suspects for offenses bordering on corporate fraud, forgery, criminal conspiracy, impersonation, and obstruction of justice. The Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has reiterated the commitment of the Nigeria Police Force to due process, transparency, and the protection of legitimate business interests.
