The Managing Director, Ruzu Herbal products, Dr Robert Onyemaechi Uzu, has lost huge sum of money to the tune of N54m to his company’s lady accountant, Ogochukwu Uzu, in Lagos State for allegedly engaging her in sex romp and she in turn swindled him as compensation over his amorous act.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at the company located at Abdul Rahamonu Street, off Era Junction, Agric, Egan area of Igando, Lagos, where Ogochukwu was employed as accountant managing the company’s finances.
The CEO, Dr Robert, as popularly known, was said to have told Ogochukwu, who both of them hail from the same village in Ukwuani, Delta State, on condition that he will employ her but while she will be working as the company’s accountant, she will as well satisfy his sexual needs any time he needed it. She was eventually employed and given free hand on the finances of the company.
It was said that while Dr Robert Uzu was getting sex from Ogochukwu, she too was taking his money to the tune of the said amount before their relationship broke down and he then decided to probe the Finance Department headed by Ogochukwu.
Trouble was said to have started after Ogochukwu’s fiance, who had travelled abroad returned and they properly got married in Edo State, which Dr Robert was said to have also attended and contributed money towards the wedding.
However, it was said that when Ogochukwu resumed for work, Robert wanted their sexual relationship to continue despite the fact she was married. Ogochukwu was then said to have refused and got pregnant for her husband, which angered Robert.
He then invited an external auditor to look into the financial records of the company since Ogochukwu started working in the company. The auditor’s report reportedly stated that N150m was missing and she was invited to explain what happened to the money, which she was unable to do.
The matter was reported to the Police at Igando Division. Ogochukwu was then arrested and detained for interrogation over the missing money. The matter was later transferred to the Commissioner of Police Crack Team at the State Command Headquarters.
In the course of investigation, the Police discovered that she had bought two houses in Totowu area of Ogun State, bought a car and house for her boyfriend, built a house in her village in Ukwuani, Delta State and had some cash kept in the bank, which was recovered.
However, when she was unable to refund all the money the company claimed that she siphoned, she was charged before the Ogba Magistrates Court for stealing.
She pleaded not guilty before the Court when she was arraigned.
The prosecutor, Inspector Mathew Ikhaluode, asked the Court to give a date for hearing since she pleaded not guilty to enable the Police to prove that she actually committed the alleged offence.
The Presiding Magistrate, Mrs. Folashade Hughes, granted her bail with conditions and ordered her remand in the Correctional Centre pending when she will perfect her bail conditions while the matter was adjourned for mention.
