FIRSTNEWSNG: Central Bank of Nigeria investigating Ecobank over extortion attempt
“The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has been informed of a high-profile extortion attempt involving senior executives of Ecobank Nigeria against a UAE-based company.”
“(EcobankExtorts.com says) Jeremy Awori, the Group CEO of Ecobank Transitional Inc. (ETI), is aware of the case but has failed to stop the situation, suggesting that ETISRC’s corrupt actions have ETI’s backing.”
“The claims of an extortion attempt by Ecobank Nigeria executives come at a sensitive time for ETI. Given that ETI plans to raise $600m of additional capital, they can ill-afford their largest subsidiary to be embroiled in a controversy.”
