How N18bn Was Paid Into Mompha’s Account - Witness


N33bn alleged fraud: How N18bn was paid into Mompha’s bank account —Witness

A prosecution witness, Peter Ademola Adegoke, who works as a Compliance Officer with Fidelity Bank Plc, on Friday (today) told Justice Abdullai M. Liman of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos, how the sum of N18bn was paid into the account of a company, Ismalob Global Investments, belonging to Ismaila Mustapha, also known as Mompha.


Mompha was arraigned on November 25, 2019 on 14 counts bordering on money laundering to the tune of N33bn.

The EFCC made this known on Friday in a series of tweets via its verified Twitter handle @officialEFCC.

Continuing, EFCC states, “At today’s sitting, the first prosecution witness, PW1, Anne Nnenna Ezekannagha, a manager in the Customer Service Department of the Central Bank of Nigeria, told the court that Mompha’s company, Ismalob Ventures, was not registered with the CBN.

“She also revealed that he (Mompha) did not have the license to operate as a Bureau de Change operator.”

Led in evidence by the prosecution counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, Ezekannagha further told the court: “We got a letter from the EFCC on the activities of Ismalob Global Ventures.

“However, we have no history of the name with the CBN."
