A gubernatorial aspirant in Bauchi state, Abdulahi Usman Adamu, alias Dan China, has been declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), for allegedly obtaining the sum of $500,000 from a Chinese Company, Shengjia International (HK) Limited, by false pretence.

EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, disclosed on Sunday that the suspect allegedly obtained the sum of $500,000 from the Chinese firm as part payment for the supply of 3000MT of Lead Ore, a contract he failed to execute.

“Following a petition by the Economic and Commercial Counsellor’s Office of the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China, the EFCC invited the suspect for questioning but he failed to honour the invitation. The suspect is currently on the run, as efforts to track him, including several visits to his home in Narabi, Bauchi, proved futile.

“Consequently, the commission enjoins any one with useful information on his whereabouts to contact its head office at Wuse 2, Abuja or zonal offices in Gombe, Kano, Enugu, Port Harcourt and Lagos; or the nearest police station.

“His last known address is No. 1 Sabon Gari, Narabi, in Toro Local Government Area of Bauchi state.”

Godswill Oyegwa Oyoyou, an Information Technology staff member of a new generation bank, is also wanted by the EFCC in a case of fraud involving N6.28billion.

“Godswill allegedly conspired with some scammers and obtained the sum of N6.28bn from his bank after hacking into the bank’s database,” the EFCC spokesman said.

” The 38-year- old is from Isoko South local government area of Delta State.”
