A 30-year-old driver, Christopher Otimejin, was on Wednesday arraigned in a Grade 1 Area Court in Kabusa, Abuja, over alleged cheating and breach of trust.
The Prosecutor, C.C. Okafor, had informed the court that Otimejin, a resident of Shara Estate, Abuja, breached a business agreement reached with the complainant, Dooshima Kittikaa.
Okafor alleged that Kittikaa gave her vehicle to the defendant for commercial use, with the agreement that he would remit N35,000 weekly.
The prosecutor further told the court that Otimejin failed to make the remittances as agreed with the complainant.
“After three weeks, he only remitted for two weeks, and he refused to pay the balance of N35,000,” he said.
The prosecutor said the complaint was filed at the Kabusa Police Station, on Jan. 6.
The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The Judge, Malam Abubakar Sadiq, admitted the defendant to bail in the sum of N100,000, with one surety in like sum and then adjourned the case until Jan. 23, for further mention.
