A cook who served Esther Nnamdi-Ogbue, a
Managing Director at the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)
in Abuja, has absconded with cash and pieces of jewelry worth $6million,
a source told us on Wednesday. It was gathered that the
man, identified as Gabel Segbedji, a national of Benin Republic, took
off with the loot in a Toyota Camry car which also belonged to her boss,
last Wednesday.

Although
reportedly devastated by the development, Mrs. Nnamdi-Ogbue did not
report the burglary to the police, in the hope of avoiding further
attention, as she is already under investigation by the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Mrs. Nnamdi Ogbue was the
Managing Director of the cash-spinning Petroleum Products and Marketing
Company (PPMC) before she was moved to Products Retail by then GMD of
NNPC, Ibe Kachikwu, in 2015.
Segbedji is said to have been
recommended for employment to Mrs. Nnamdi-Ogbue by a close friend of
hers, Toke Benson. Our source said the NNPC chief obtained the mountain
of cash from kickbacks given by oil marketers
The theft of the stash is likely to affect plans for the wedding of her daughter scheduled for December in Lagos.
