The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Kaduna Zonal Directorate, has arrested Abdulazeez Gbadebo, station manager of Emadeb Energy Service Limited, for allegedly diverting company funds amounting to ₦500 million.

His arrest followed a petition by the company, which alleged that an external audit uncovered how Gbadebo manipulated pump meters to illegally sell bulk petrol and divert proceeds into his personal bank account.

Investigations by the EFCC confirmed that the suspect sold bulk petrol and diesel to different individuals and received payments through his private accounts.

Recovered items include multiple luxury vehicles an ash-coloured Mercedes Benz, three Mini Coopers of varying colours, and a white Mercedes Benz GLK. Also seized were a certificate of occupancy, an authorization letter from the Kaduna Geographical Information System (KADGIS), a three-bedroom fully detached bungalow, and three landed properties.

The EFCC said Gbadebo would be charged to court as soon as investigations are concluded.
