EFCC Brings Serial Fraudster to Justice for Alleged N2.8m Fraud in Kano

The Economic And Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) has presented Christopher Nduka before Justice Farook Lawal Adamu of the Federal High Court in Kano on charges related to obtaining money by false pretenses and issuing a dud cheque.

Nduka, facing three counts, is accused of deceiving Tochukwu Obinna Chioke and obtaining N2,850,000 for pharmaceutical products, which never materialized. Additionally, he allegedly issued a cheque for N1,800,000 in favor of Chioke Tochukwu Obinna, which bounced due to insufficient funds in his account.

Upon being charged, Nduka pleaded not guilty. The prosecution’s counsel, Idris I. Haruna, requested a trial date, while the defense counsel, P.A Edamaku, sought bail for the defendant. Justice Lawal granted bail of N1,000,000 and required one surety with a landed property within the court’s jurisdiction. The trial is set to commence on March 27, 2024.

Nduka, a notorious repeat offender with two prior convictions for similar crimes, faces fresh allegations. A petitioner accused him of diverting funds meant for pharmaceutical products and issuing two bouncing cheques due to inadequate funds in his account.
