Managing Director of Zenith Bank Plc, Jim Ovia was in Abuja yesterday where he met with the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Farida Waziri and the Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Michael Aondokaa.
An official of Zenith Bank who confirmed Ovia's visit, however said it was voluntary. Reports say the EFCC actually arrested Ovia and took him to Abuja.
Ovia's meetings with Waziri and Aondoakaa were related to the investigation of the EFCC into the 3.6billion mysterious withdrawal from the account of the Rivers State government lodged with the Bank.
Three officials of Zenith, including the Branch Manager, the Head of Operation, and the Relationship Manager of the account in the branch the withdrawals were made have also been arrested by the EFCC as part of the investigations.
