[b]Contrary to the news report early in the week that the former CEO of Intercontinental bank plc returned to the country via the land border and immediately went into hiding, another news has just emerged that the fugitive banker is actually in London. Is it not better for this man to just do like Cecilia Ibru and hand himself over to the berbecue makers at the EFCC?[/b]
Son says Akingbola won’t pick calls
The son of fugitive bank chief, Erastus Akingbola, refused to get involved in a discussion regarding his father’s whereabouts on Tuesday. This at a time when the London newspaper, the Evening Standard reported that Mr. Akingbola is sheltering from the Nigerian authorities at his multi-million pound posh apartment in West London.\
Keeping mute
“He is not available, but can I take a message? Do you have a message?” said his son who family friends say is named Wole Akingbola. This in response to NEXT enquiries.
The junior Akingbola, sounding harassed, said he could not confirm if his father was at home, and after putting NEXT on hold for three minutes returned to say all he would do is take a message.
Mr. Akingbola’s son, Wole, a banker himself, is known to share with his father the luxurious apartment on Chester Terrace which overlooks Regents Park. Apartments here cost as much as £5 million. http://234next.com/csp/cms/sites/Next/News/National/5457781-146/story.csp
