Ex-Access Bank staff member, Chinonso Akujobi, has been remanded at the Ikoyi Correctional Centre over the alleged theft of ₦294,595,992.
The EFCC arraigned Akujobi before Justice I.O. Ijelu at the Lagos State High Court on a five-count charge involving stealing and dishonest conversion.
Prosecutors allege she misused her position to divert funds from the bank’s general ledger into personal accounts between January and December 2025. Specifically, she is accused of transferring ₦109,325,566.86 to accounts under her control.
Following her “not guilty” plea, Justice Ijelu remanded her and adjourned the case to October 8, 2026, for bail hearings and trial commencement.
