E-Money, Auto Corps reach mutual agreement after police involvement

Following the involvement of the police, the Chief Executive Officer of Emy Cargo and Shipping Services Limited, Mr Emeka Okonkwo, popularly known as E-Money, has reached an agreement with Auto Corps Automobile Limited.

Reports gathered earlier showed that the police had confirmed that E-Money was under investigation over the alleged acquisition of 488 cars.

It was learnt that someone entrusted him with money to deliver 488 cars, but the person only delivered 480, leaving out eight cars.

Although one vehicle had been recovered out of the eight cars, seven remained outstanding.

A statement released by the Federal Criminal Investigation Department in Alagbon and signed by the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Aminat Mayegun, however, said that under the Alternative Dispute Resolution framework, both Auto Corps Automobile Limited and Emy Cargo and Shipping Services Nigeria Limited came to a mutual agreement.
