-Collected N240million from an account with no Bank Verification Number (BVN).
-Operates 50 accounts with different names in different banks and links with five companies.
-Multiple passports recovered from Olojeme’s house, by EFCC detectives.
-Olojeme, was the Deputy Chairman, Finance Committee of 2015 PDP/ Jonathan Campaign Committee and borrowed the $2.8million and -N240million, purportedly to contest for the party’s governorship ticket in 2014.
-This is the second time the ex-NSITF boss will be in EFCC net. The EFCC is also probing about N62.3billion fraud in NSITF with $48,485,127 credited to Olojeme.

A petition from Prince Arthur Eze, the Chairman/CEO of Oranto Petroleum Limited ,has spurred ongoing investigations into the very messy financial dealings of former Nigerian Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSTIF) Chairperson Dr. Ngozi Olojeme .The latter allegedly obtain $2.8 million and N240 million from the businessman, in very puzzling circumstances.

She was said to have collected the N240million from an account with no Bank Verification Number (BVN).She is also in fresh trouble for operating 50 accounts with different names in different banks and links with five companies.

The companies are Able -Jes Nigeria Ltd; Juliand Nig. Ltd; Majesty Mining and Construction Company Ltd; and Fresh Energy Limited.

Another quite amazing revelation was the recovery of multiple passports from Olojeme’s house by EFCC detectives. She has a Ghana International Passport No. H2619481 in the name of Amartey Doris and one Ghana International Driving License permit, with number IDP 0008462.

Following these findings, the EFCC re-arrested and released Olojeme on bail on Monday.

There were indications that apart from the fraud case, she might be arraigned for using fake names to secure a Ghanaian passport.

A fact-sheet obtained from the EFCC indicated that Olojeme, who was the Deputy Chairman, Finance Committee of 2015 PDP/ Jonathan Campaign Committee, borrowed the $2.8million and N240million to contest for the party’s governorship ticket in 2014.

But shortly after getting the cash from Eze, she stopped picking his calls.

“When they (detectives) initially arrested her, they confiscated her Nigerian passport. They later searched her house at 25, Kainji Crescent in Maitama and in the course of the search found a Ghanaian driver’s licence and multiple passports, including those of ECOWAS, Ghana and diplomatic passport under different names.

“EFCC is investigating her for allegedly obtaining money by false pretence which was reported to the commission by Prince Arthur Eze, MD/CEO of Oranto Petroleum Limited. The case was referred to the Advance Fee Fraud Unit.”

The document gave the details of the case against Olojeme.

It added: “In April 2014, Mrs. Olojeme approached Prince Eze that she intended to contest for the governorship election in Delta State and she had put up her properties for sale to raise money. She sought for assistance from the complainant.

“He further stated that he demanded to see the properties she intended to sell but she refused to show him. She however pleaded with him to trust her claiming she will never disappoint him.

“He added that at the initial stage he refused but after persistent pressure from her, he decided (Based on Trust) and paid the total sum of $2.8million into her Fidelity Bank domiciliary account and also the total sum of N240million into her Fidelity Bank account on the condition that she will return the money before the end of 2015.

“That between 2nd April, 2014 and 25th March, 2015 the total sum of USD $2.8million was paid to Ngozi Olojeme from the account of Oranto Petroleum Ltd by the complainant.

“ That between 25 July, 2014 and 6th November, 2014, the total sum of 240million Naira was also transferred from the account of Oranto Petroleum Ltd by the complainant.

“ That the said Olojeme’s Fidelity Bank account number 4021090292 where this money was paid into was not registered or linked to the BVN.

“That immediately she collected the money from him, she stopped picking his calls.”
