The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared Emeka Johnson Iheanacho, Ogadima Dominic Duru, and foreign national Khalidur Rahman Mohammad Talukder wanted over allegations of financial crimes. The notices were issued on Tuesday by Dele Oyewale, Head of Media and Publicity at the EFCC, as part of efforts to locate suspects involved in cross-border financial misconduct. Iheanacho, 48, from Abia State, is wanted over allegations of obtaining money by false pretence and criminal conversion of funds. His last known address is 17 Woodland Rise, Chilmington Green, Ashford, Kent, TN23 8AR, United Kingdom. The EFCC has asked the public to provide any credible information on his whereabouts to any of its zonal offices, police stations, or other security agencies. All tips will be treated confidentially.
In a separate notice, the EFCC named Ogadima Dominic Duru, 39, and Khalidur Rahman Mohammad Talukder as wanted for alleged offences including obtaining money by false pretence and criminal breach of trust. Duru's last known address is Suite 2A, Lapal House, 235 Igbosere Road, Lagos Island, Lagos State. Talukder, a foreign national, was last traced to Devonshire House, 1 Mayfair Place, London W1J 8AJ, United Kingdom. The EFCC did not disclose the amount of money involved in the alleged crimes. The agency stated that the cases are part of ongoing investigations into cross-border financial fraud.
The EFCC urged members of the public with information on the suspects to report through official channels. It assured that whistleblowers' identities would remain protected. The agency reaffirmed its commitment to prosecuting all individuals involved in financial crimes, regardless of their location or status.
Emeka Iheanacho is wanted over alleged fraud and fund conversion, yet the EFCC has not disclosed the financial value involved in the case. This lack of detail makes it impossible to assess the scale of harm to potential victims named in the investigation. Ogadima Duru and a foreign national are also sought over similar charges, with no clarification on their alleged roles or connections. Without transparency on the amounts or victims, public cooperation may be limited despite the EFCC's appeal.
