The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has declared a foreign national and two other individuals wanted over alleged financial crimes, including obtaining money by false pretence and criminal breach of trust.

This was contained in two separate notices issued on Tuesday by Dele Oyewale, the EFCC’s head of media and publicity.

In the first notice, the commission declared Emeka Iheanacho, 48, wanted for alleged offences of obtaining money by false pretence and criminal conversion of funds.

The EFCC said Iheanacho, an indigene of Abia state, was last known to reside at 17 Woodland Rise, Chilmington Green, Ashford, Kent, United Kingdom.

The anti-graft agency urged members of the public with useful information on his whereabouts to report to any of its zonal offices nationwide, contact its official hotline, or reach out via email.

In a second notice, the commission also declared Ogadima Dominic Duru, 39, and Khalidur Rahman Mohammad Talukder wanted over similar allegations of obtaining money by false pretence and criminal breach of trust.

Duru was said to have a last known address at Igbosere Road, Lagos Island, Lagos State, while Talukder reportedly resides at Mayfair Place, London, United Kingdom.

The EFCC reiterated its appeal for public cooperation in locating the suspects, stressing that the individuals are wanted in connection with ongoing investigations into financial crimes.
