A Lagos-based employee, Bello Saheed Samuel, has been arraigned before a Federal High Court in Lagos for allegedly stealing ₦90 million belonging to his employer, an investment company.

Samuel, who worked in the finance department of the firm, was accused of fraudulently diverting the funds through a series of insider transactions. Eyes Of Lagos reports,

According to police investigations, the suspect allegedly absconded from Lagos with members of his family shortly after his fraudulent activities were uncovered. He reportedly cut off all communication lines in a bid to evade arrest.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, the spokesperson for the Police Special Fraud Unit (PSFU), DSP Ovie Kenneth Ewhubare, disclosed that Samuel was eventually arrested in Oye-Ekiti Local Government Area of Ekiti State following a coordinated manhunt across several South-Western states.

DSP Ewhubare revealed that the suspect allegedly laundered the stolen funds through the bank accounts of friends and relatives in an attempt to conceal the origin of the money.

Samuel has now been arraigned on charges bordering on conspiracy and money laundering, while investigations are ongoing to identify and arrest other individuals linked to the alleged crime.

Reacting to the development, the Commissioner of Police, Police Special Fraud Unit, Lagos, CP Kayode Ojapinwa, reiterated the unit’s commitment to tackling financial crimes across the country. He also urged corporate organisations to strengthen internal control systems and closely monitor employees to prevent insider-related financial abuse.

The case has been adjourned, and the suspect remains in custody pending further proceedings.

No, they are the ones Ojukwu fled Nigeria in skirt and blouse for to avoid being identified after sacrificing over three million people like you

An average Nigerian is a criminal by default.

In as much as I don't support fraud, most of the companies don't treat their employees well, imagine handling heavy transactions for ur company and ur pay can't even take u home.

I am sure he already paid his tithe........ 😁😂

The hardest part of commiting a crime is the brilliance of not leaving traces or footprint back to you after the crime has been committed,

Now in a case where a crime committed (like stealing or missing fund) is in itself an evidence of your crime, then you are being stupid before you commited the crime, because every one now knows your name is linked to some missing fund.

This is why most thief are foolish, their absence announces their guilt, a competent thief steals and dine with you, cover up tracks and even vows to litigate for libel and slander e.g politicians.

As a staff if you are being paid well, i dont see any reason to steal from your oga.

This is simply greediness.

Some nigerians sef!

Stupid fellow. A thief. A stupid thief. Hand don touch u.

My people suffer done dabaru them sense


They only see money
No investment plan
No nothing

An average Nigerian is wired to steal

Bello should do the time for stealimg

Oga Bello hehe. Can stealing fill the void in the heart of a thief

You shouldn’t have let a fool like him drag you down that part,he should have been completely ignored. I just don’t know why their parent fed them with so much hatred 😢
Election will come and then they will remember we’re one Nigeria, May God heal our lands

Stole 90 million and ran to ekiti....



What a bunkuum

Yoruba man must survive

By any means



Thunder fire E-bola Amoda ogunlere

Same people will tell people to go to their states, yet they are not from Lagos. The company must retrieve every kobo of the N90 million.

NwOSU, it’s too early to be sounding so incoherent…..stop crying, bitter obi won’t still be president of obodo Nigeria

Between 2023 and 2026 Nigeria would have spent N30 trillion on Fuel subsidy....

Nigeria would have spent over $40 billions to defend the Naira...

That is a total of over $62billion disappearing without wings....

The opposition will say " where is the money "...

Don't blame them ....

In Democracy, if the ruling party say " Donald Trump is the president of America"
The opposition will oppose it.....
That is why they are called opposition...
Their job is to oppose...even when their opposition defy logic....

In May 2007 Obasanjo handed over a debt of over $20billion to Yar Adua, including a gross external reserve of $43billion.....

In May 2015.... Jonathan transferred a total debt of $63 billion to Buhari, including Gross external reserve of about $29billion...

Two things happened....

In 8 years Jonathan grew Nigeria debt by over 200%, depleted the external reserve by over 50%..

This is despite selling an average annual Crude Oil of over 2 million barrels from 2007 to 2015....

This is despite selling crude Oil at an average of $100 from 2007 to 2014....

The wailers that were in power in those 16 years didn't ask where the whole money sold from $100 of barrel of crude went to...

They didn't ask why borrowing increased by over 200% in 8 years and FX reserve collapsed despite massive spike in crude prices...

They were too dum*b to ask... Because they were wired to shout " power to the people" at all time...

The average population of Nigeria when they wasted all those monies in 16 years was just 145 million, Today Tinubu is leading almost 250 million people... almost twice a nation the wailers led..

In 2023 Buhari left $43billion external debt, and N54 trillion domestic debt.... Using an FX rate of N460 per dollar, Buhari left a total debt of $160billion for Tinubu....

Buhari left $33billion Gross external reserve.. with FX backlog of almost $30billion...

The latter days Wailers who are blinded by region and ethnicity including those blinded appointment Rustlers... Didn't ask the Buhari they were supporting why he grew Nigeria debt by almost 200% with an Empty net External reserve...

They were more interested in shouting " Ranka Dede"..

If Tinubu continued on business as usual.... Nigeria debt would have been over $240 billion ...adding money borrowed to pay salary... Gaza would have been heaven for Nigerians....

With a touch of genius Tinubu recalibrated Nigeria debt to around $100 billion.... Wiping off over $60 billion from what he inherited from Buhari...
Tinubu grew the external reserve to over $46billion....

Economics is not for kids.... Tinubu economic team are genius....

Tinubu is leading a country almost twice what Obasanjo & Jonathan led... He is selling crude almost half of what wailers and their leaders sold..

Yet his projects are everywhere....

They just saved a ship with over 245 million people from the verge of wrecking....

If you failed economics in school but want to come and lecture Wale Edun here...

You are one of the reason why the Urhobos will always say that...

It is better to born a thief than to born a mumu...

Proverbs are not for kids.....

A Yoruba Professor claims Awolowo betrayed Ojukwu who openly supported Awolowo to become President after the first coup. According to the Yoruba Professor Ojukwu wanted Awolowo to be President even ahead of Azikiwe. Ojukwu had zero tribalism in him because he was born in the North of Nigeria and came from a wealthy home. I'll go to YouTube to get the Professors name.

Wow! What an effort!
Hand don touch oga Bello.
