The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of OInnoson Group of Companies, Chief Innocent Chukwuma has said that given details of how the GTBank swindled him of about N400 Million and still caused his arrest and detention through the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC).
Chukwuma, who addressed news men yesterday, Saturday in his country home, Nnewi, shortly after his return from detention in Abuja, said that his arrest had no tribal or zonal undertone but purely business.
He said that he discovered that his bank, GTBank had for long been deducting some money illegally from his account for over eleven years amounting to over N400 million, adding that when he observed the illegal withdrawals, he consulted an auditor who tabulated the correct amount which the bank agreed to refund but later reneged.
According to him, the matter was taken to both the high court and court of Appeal where he won.
The Innoson Chairman expressed surprise that the bank could involve the EFCC to arrest him even when they were the one indebted to him.
Chief Chukwuma thanked President Muhammadu Buhari, Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State and some Igwes, Emirs and Obas and other notable personalities and groups across the country for intervening in the matter. [myad]
