Court convicts wanted businesswoman for N47m fraud

“The defendant’s oral testimony in court that the agribusiness was affected by flooding and Fulani herdsmen attack was an afterthought. She wanted to be living big at the expense of other people without counting the cost.

“Although the defendant seems to have absconded, having jumped bail graciously granted her by this court, the truth is that she cannot run away from justice.” Dada said from the foregoing, the evidence before the court clearly showed that the case against the defendant had been proved beyond every reasonable doubt on the two counts of obtaining the sum of N47.6m under false pretences.Meanwhile, the convict’s sentencing was suspended in accordance with Sections 321 and 352 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, in conjunction with Section 278 of the ACJ Law 2015, pending when she would be apprehended and brought before the court.

Dada, thereafter, issued a bench warrant for Adanu’s arrest and ordered that the EFCC should declare her wanted.All rights reserved.
