He had two colleagues who worked with him as accountants and their names were Mr. Akinwande and Mr. Nwokocha. They all worked in the same office but Mr. Akinwande and Nwokocha were fraudulent. They doctored the company's accounts at will and stole company's money through dubious means. They tried to introduce their fraudulent deal to Mr. Effiong but he refused to join them in defrauding the company because he had always wished to live a clean life. free of dubious activities as his parents had admonished him that a good name is always better than riches. They tried every means possible to convince Mr. Effiong to join them in their devilish acts but he refused. When they were not successful in convincing Mr. Effiong to join them. Mr. Akinwande and Mr. Nwokocha continued to defraud the company and at times converted company properties to their private uses.
