Chief Dr. Chekwas Okorie Enmeshed In Fraud by Blessing008(f): 8:28am On Feb 19, 2018
Chief, Dr Chekwas Okorie, the United Progressive Party Chairman has been petitioned to the inspector general of police, IGP, by the Latter House attorney, for fraud and forgery, acting on behalf of their clients: COGIPAR NIG LTD, DEC OIL & GAS LTD, and DR P. S UGBOMAH. Chief Dr chekwas, is been accused of fraudulently converting to his personal use four vehicles; a TOYOTA HIAACE BUS owned by COGIPAR NIG LTD, a TOYOTA LAND CRUISER owned by DEC OIL & GAS LTD, a TOYOTA TACOMA TRUCK owned by DEC OIL & GAS LTD, and a TOYOTA HILUX PICK-UP TRUCK owned by DEC OIL & GAS all in Port Harcourt, Rivers state Nigeria, with all vehicles engine and chassis number documents included, which were donated as gifts to the party for his own personal use.
He has also been accused of forgery, and deliberately changing the ownership documents of the cars with fake corporate letter headed papers purportedly and allegedly issued by the Managing Director of the companies and for misrepresenting his signatures
The petition has it that in 2014, chief Chekwas was introduced to the clients, through a friend for the purpose of donating vehicles for use for the general elections. The vehicles were delivered as gifts to him, but were later converted to his own personal properties without any mandate or authority from the owners. Chief okorie went ahead and illegally registered the vehicles at different licensing offices in his name and personal capacity, no longer in the name of the political party thereby, defeating the real intentions and frustrating the good wills, objectives, intent and purposes of the gifts
In their displeasure at the illegality, forgery and fraud, the Latter house attorney on behalf of the clients, petitioned the IGP, asking that chief chekwas be investigated to serve as a deterrent to other political jobbers who misrepresent facts for the purpose of deceiving and obtaining gifts from unsuspecting members of the public for their personal enjoyment and aggrandisement.
The clients, have also agreed to make themselves available to the police to help carry out an immediate, thorough, and effective investigation of the offences and breach of trust from Dr Chekwas okorie’s conduct
In the same vein, a port Harcourt business man, has also asked chief Dr okorie to quit his fully furnished property given to him at Asokoro Abuja which was given at will (non paying)
As at the time of this report, the four vehicles have all been recovered from Chief Dr Chekwas house in Enugu, eastern part of Nigeria and are at the police station
We will keep updating you on this news as it breaks out.
