The police in Lagos today arraigned a 22 year old car painter, Taiye
Obakoya, before Mrs J. O. Adepoju of the Igbosere Magistrates’ Court,
for absconding with one of his customers, Dada Emmanuel's N1 million
mistakenly transferred to his account on October 20th. Obakoya who
resides at No. 26 Awolowo Street, Oworosoki, Lagos, absconded the money
and was arrested after spending N150,000 from the money.
Prosecuting Sergeant Nicholas Akpene told the court that Dada Emmanuel
had employed the services of Obakoya and asked for an account number to
pay him his money after he completed his painting job. Dada while trying
to credit the account, mistakenly did a mobile phone money transfer of
N1m from his bank account to the Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) account of
Obakoya.
“After discovering the error, he phoned Obakoya and pleaded with him not
to tamper with the money, but the defendant assured him that no such
amount was credited to his account. The next morning, the defendant
refused to pick his calls and when the complainant checked him at home
and at his workshop under the bridge at Obalende, Obakoya wasn’t there.
The complainant then reported the matter to GTB, which placed a
restriction on Obakoya’s account after confirming that the N1m was
successfully transferred to it and that he had already withdrawn
N150,000 from it.”
