Sales Boy and Female Accomplice Arraigned Over N115m Fraud in Lagos

Sales Boy and Female Accomplice Arraigned Over N115m Fraud in Lagos

A 26-year-old sales boy, Ebuka Eze, and his alleged accomplice, Nduka Mabel Nwagu, were arraigned before an Igbosere Magistrate’s Court in Lagos. They face charges over the diversion of ₦115 million in company sales proceeds. Investigations by the Violence Crime Response Unit began after the company’s general manager noticed a steady drop in sales. A subsequent audit uncovered the missing funds, prompting a petition to the Inspector-General of Police. Police allege that Eze sold clothes worth the missing amount between 2022 and 2026 but kept the proceeds. Nwagu is accused of receiving ₦12 million of the stolen money through multiple bank accounts. Both defendants pleaded not guilty. The court granted each bail of ₦5 million with two sureties and remanded them at correctional centres until they meet the conditions. The next mention is set for August 28, 2026.

Were there gaps in internal audits or reconciliations that could've flagged the missing sales funds earlier?

It's odd a sales boy held responsibility for such large sums, raises questions about corporate oversight in that company.

Blaming just the two accused seems simplistic when internal audit lapses appear to be the real issue.

Companies should implement stricter reconciliation processes and random cash audits to prevent a repeat of such large-scale diversion.
