“Through his companies, Amamgbo lifted crude oil and gas worth billions of dollars over a period of four years,” an official said.

“A search conducted in the office and premises of Mezcor Oil and Gas Limited at No. 5 Sannar street, Wuse 2, Abuja yielded documents which included payments for the purchase of houses and vehicles.”

Sources at the anti-graft agency said the investigation was continuing.

However, when contacted, the spokesperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, said: “I am told there is something like that but I don’t have the details.”

Amamgbo’s arrest comes after Alison-Madueke’s husband was earlier arrested and released on February 18 as part of the investigations into her stewardship at the oil industry.

Alison-Madueke herself was arrested on October 2, 2015 in London by the UK National Crimes Agency for alleged overseas corruption and money laundering.
