However, a post that later surfaced online disclosed that Okorie allegedly disobeyed court orders by failing to appear in court on several occasions when summoned.

According to the report, the close associate who stood as her surety during her initial arrest could not be located. It was further claimed that Okorie was tracked to Lagos, where she was eventually arrested. She is expected to remain in detention for some time before her bail hearing takes place.
