One of the counts reads: “That you, Adamu Idris Chado (a.k.a Abdullahi Abubakar) on or about the 14th day of October 2016 in Kaduna within the Kaduna Judicial Division of the High Court did dishonestly induce one Mrs. Ajoke Afolabi to deliver to you the sum of N220,000.00 (Two Hundred

He pleaded “not guilty” to the charges.
The case was thereafter adjourned to July 25, 2019 for hearing.
