The Interpol section of the Nigeria Police Force has declared a businesswoman Munachim Onyia wanted over her involvement in a N5.3 billion investment fraud.
Ms Onyia had been running MECO Enterprises, a sole proprietorship she registered in September 2018, according to companies registration filings.
She also ran IBC Africa, an investment firm, and the eponymous Muna Investment, a Ponzi scheme through which she allegedly swindled unsuspecting investors.
A warrant of arrest has been issued for Onyia by the Lagos Division of the Federal High Court.
“She is wanted by the police for the offence of obtaining money under false pretence the suspect falsely claimed to be a CBN Agent and obtained over one Billion Naira (N1B),” a notice issued by the Interpol section of the Nigeria Police Force in Lagos said.
