A cook who served Esther Nnamdi-Ogbue, a Managing Director at the
Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) in Abuja, has absconded
with cash and pieces of jewelry worth $6million. It was gathered that
the man, identified as Gabel Segbedji, a national of Benin Republic,
took off with the loot in a Toyota Camry car which also belonged to her
boss, last Wednesday.
Although reportedly devastated by the development, Mrs. Nnamdi-Ogbue did
not report the burglary to the police, in the hope of avoiding further
attention, as she is already under investigation by the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Mrs. Nnamdi Ogbue was the Managing Director of the cash-spinning
Petroleum Products and Marketing Company (PPMC) before she was moved to
Products Retail by then GMD of NNPC, Ibe Kachikwu, in 2015.
Segbedji is said to have been recommended for employment to Mrs.
Nnamdi-Ogbue by a close friend of hers, Toke Benson. Our source said
the NNPC chief obtained the mountain of cash from kickbacks given by oil
marketers
The theft of the stash is likely to affect plans for the wedding of her daughter scheduled for later this month in London.
