The complainant, Al-Amin Abba Dabo, sometime in November,
2013, allegedly transferred the sum of $7000(Seven Thousand Dollars) into the
company account of one Mubaraq Abdulkareem in Century Path Nigeria Limited for
the importation of some cars (Mercedes Benz C300, 2014 model, Mercedes Benz CLA
250, 2015 and Range Rover Vogue) from Canada into Nigeria.
Dabo also allegedly paid another sum of N3, 000,000.00
into ISKA and Gas Petroleum Company account domiciled in a new generation bank
for the Range Rover Vogue in February, 2014.
However, the accused person neither delivered the cars
to the complainant nor refunded him.
Investigation revealed that the accused person is the mother
of Mubarak Abdulkareem (now at large), who is a director in both companies.
Count one of the charge reads: ‘‘That you Asabe

1(1)(a) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act , 2006
and punishable under Section1(3) of the same Act.
The accused person pleaded not guilty to the charges when
they were read to him.

trial date.
Consequently Justice Galadanci adjourned to April 21, 2016
for hearing on the bail application.
