The Lagos Zonal Directorate 2 of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has arraigned three individuals and two companies before the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, over the alleged theft and laundering of N652.18 million belonging to Petrocam Trading Nigeria Limited.In a post obtained from its X handle on Friday, the defendants, Jacob Acheneje Okolo, Yakubu Wisdom Onu Solomon and Issa Aloba Lateef, alongside Upper-Level Energy Resources and Crescent Integrated and General Merchandise Limited, were arraigned before Justice Olubunmi O. Abike-Fadipe on an eight-count charge bordering on conspiracy to steal, stealing and money laundering.The defendants had earlier been scheduled for arraignment on July 8, 2026, but the proceedings were adjourned due to the absence of Lateef and his legal counsel.One of the charges alleged that Okolo and Upper-Level Energy Resources dishonestly converted over N343.76 million belonging to Petrocam Trading Nigeria Limited to their personal use.“Jacob Acheneje Okolo and Upper-Level Energy Resources, sometime between 2022 and 2025, in Lagos, dishonestly stole and converted to your own use the sum of ₦343,765,101.44, property of Petrocam Trading Nigeria Limited,” one of the charges read.Another count accused the same defendants of stealing an additional N200.93 million from the company.“That you, Jacob Acheneje Okolo and Upper-Level Energy Resources, sometime between 2022 and 2025, in Lagos, dishonestly stole and converted to your own use the sum of ₦200,932,500.00, property of Petrocam Trading Nigeria Limited,” another charge stated.The defendants pleaded not guilty to all the charges.Following their pleas, counsel to the first, second and third defendants, C.T.
