The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arraigned one Hayatu Abdullahi before Justice Hafsat Yahaya Sani of Kano State High Court on one count charge bordering on criminal breach of trust.

The defendant, sometime in 2019, offered to sell a four bedroom duplex located at Hotoro, Off Eastern Bypass, to one Aminu Ahmed for Fourteen Million Naira (N14, 000,000).

He was paid an initial sum of Eight Million Four Hundred Thousand Naira (N8, 400,000) in instalments.

On the day Ahmed was supposed to pay the balance of Six Million Naira (N6, 000,000), he requested for the  title document which the defendant could not provide.

Consequently, he requested for the refund of his money but the defendant was only able to pay Three Million Naira (N3, 000,000). All efforts to get the balance proved futile.
