Hiuna boss and multi-millionaire businessman, Hilary Unachukwu, must be very, very grateful to God. In fact, he should locate a church and immediately go for a special thanksgiving. Why? The Lord just spared his life. According to what I heard, a mistress of his, Victoria Alaegbu, 46, had visited him at home in Ikoyi, Lagos – and allegedly got him drugged. This was sometime in December. Thereafter, she had him locked inside the house, unconscious and lifeless and bolted with his $1.5 m (about N259 million).
The man woke up hours later, sought help and was rescued. He went after the lady, got her arrested and now the matter is before Margistrate S.K Matepo, in Lagos, with Sergeant Nicholas Akpene as the prosecuting officer. The case comes up again on February 10 – and I promise to carry you along. Popularly known as Izundu World Man, Unachukwu is from Nnewi and the Chairman of AEG Electronics. Years back when late Ikemba Nnewi, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu returned from exile in Ivory Coast, he gave him a Benz jeep, which Oliver de Coque documented in one of his albums.
