Ayoola Seun, a 33-year-old Point of Sale operator, had on Tuesday, March 7, arraigned by the police before an Ota Magistrates’ Court in Ogun State for purportedly defrauding a company of N891,000.
Inspector E.O Adaraloye, the prosecutor informed the court that the defendant committed the offences on October 20, 2022, at about 10:00 a.m.
Seun who was living at No. 5, Fatimilola St., Afobaje, Itele, Awori, Ota in Ogun State at the time had been given N891,000 to pay some customers by Monie Point International but had failed to disburse the money.
According to Adaraloye,
“The defendant fraudulently used the large sum of N891,000 for his personal use instead of fulfilling the agreement between him and the company.”
Adaraloye had then revealed that the offences contravened Sections 390(9) and 419 of the Criminal Code, Laws of Ogun.
But Seun had, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge. The case has been adjourned till April 3 for further hearing.
