The music boss is also the brother of Kingsley Okonkwo, known as K-Cee.

It was said that an order was issued to the Lagos State Police Command to withdraw the six policemen attached to E-Money.

The paper said a top police source revealed that “We received a signal from the Force headquarters on Monday that the police detail of music executive, E-Money, be immediately withdrawn and an investigation into the man be launched.

“The IG was surprised that policemen were attached to him in the first place and were being used like domestic servants, carrying umbrellas, opening doors, and doing menial jobs for him.

“The policemen were discovered to be attached to B Operations at the command headquarters and not MOPOL which is the usual practice. So, we have withdrawn his policemen and we are inviting him for questioning. The policemen will also be interrogated.”

The music group chairman, according to reports, claims to be a clearing and forwarding agent.

He is said to boasts of two Rolls Royce, two Mercedes Benz G Wagons and other Sports Utility Vehicles worth billions of naira.
