EFCC Arraigns Cubana Group Manager, One Other Over Alleged $164,000 Money Laundering

The Lagos Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arraigned Lucky Uchechukwu Ndukwe, a manager with Cubana Group before Justice O.A. Fadipe of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos for an offence bordering on conspiracy to launder and money laundering.

He was arraigned alongside one Precious Omonkhoa Ofure on Wednesday.

Ndukwe, also known as Cubana Prime Minister, and Ofure were arrested recently by operatives of the commission, following credible intelligence received about their involvement in the fraudulent activity, a tweet on the official account of the agency read.

This comes nine months after popular socialite and businessman, Obinna Iyiegbu, aka Obi Cubana, was interrogated by EFCC officials.

Iyiegbu is the Chairman of the Cubana Group.

In 2021, the businessman made headlines when he hosted an ostentatious burial for his late mother in Oba, Anambra State, in which over 200 cows were reportedly killed.

The lavish display of wealth set tongues wagging with many Nigerians wondering about his source of wealth.

Several celebrities, businesspeople and politicians turned out in large numbers for the funeral.
