CIG President Ambassador Felix Duke, has raised alarm over harassment and threat to his safety, by men operating under the disguise of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC.
The veteran singer said, following his land matter issue with one Joseph Onuh Ogwuche, a retired United States of America soldier, his life has been under threat by the said Ogwuche who has been using the EFCC to harass him.
Few months ago, the CIG President, raised alarm after operatives of the anti – graft agency, stormed his upscale hotel Duke and Duchess Hotel at the Abule’ Egba area of Lagos State. He alleged that the said operatives who tried to arrest his wife Capriz, later broke down some of his hotel room doors and allegedly made away with 5000 euros, he was supposed to travel to Germany with.
Thereafter, he dragged the anti- fraud agency to court to seek for damages to the tune of ₦500,000,000,00 ( five hundred million naira) in payment, as general and exemplary damages for infringement on his fundamental human rights and theft.
This however did not deter EFCC from trailing his movements. The singer said, his life is no longer safe and since the ant-graft agency said they are not involved in his matter, he is going to use every means available to defend himself.
The law suit he filed against Tony Ogwuche came up at the Federal High Court Ikoyi on the 5th of November 2025, while another case he filed against the EFCC came up in the same court on 10th.
Duke took the EFCC to court over infringement on his fundamental human rights and theft. However during the hearing, the court asked both parties to maintain status quo. This order by the court according to Duke, has been defied by the EFCC as they have continued to monitor his movements.
You will recall that the CIG President has been having a running battle with one Joseph Onuh Ogwuche, over the payment of the balance of #7,000,000,00, being the balance of the money paid for a land acquired by Ogwuche in a land acquisition scheme introduce by CIG to help members own their own property.
