 ‘Empty barrels’ – Otti dismisses Uzor Kalu, Orji, Ikpeazu opposition gang-up Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has urged Abians to disregard recent remarks by some leaders of the opposition in the state. Governor Otti who was speaking on Saturday at Seventh-Day Adventist Church, Umuoriehi, Umuahia North LGA, during the dedication of the church building, said that those who are gathering against him were the same people that failed to develop the state in the past. Otti was reacting to an alliance formed against his re-election by former Abia governors Orji Uzor Kalu, Theodore Orji and Okezie Ikpeazu. The governor slammed the opposition members for pursuing personal interest above the collective development of Abia, declaring that every gathering they are making against him would collapse. He said, “Pastor Uguru made reference to the noise that you may have been hearing in the last few days. “I want us to just dismiss it as noise, you know, and it’s always the empty barrel that makes...

Court Jails One for Land Fraud in Maiduguri


The Maiduguri Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Monday, October 23, 2023, secured the conviction and sentencing of one Sadiq Mustapha to one year imprisonment.


He was jailed by Justice Umaru Fadawu of the Borno State High Court, Maiduguri, after pleading guilty to one -count amended charge bordering on cheating to the tune of N3, 900.000.00 (Three Million, Nine Hundred Thousand Naira only).


The charge reads: “That you Sadiq Mustapha on or about 10th day of August, 2017, at Maiduguri, within the judicial division of this Honourable Court, did fraudulently induce Yawudi Zarma to deliver to you the sum of Three Million Nine Hundred Thousand Naira, N3, 900, 000.00, under the guise that the said amount represent payment for the purchase of a plot of land covered by grant right of occupancy No. BO/2065/16, Plot No. 7 on BOTP/64, Pompomari Industrial Layout, Maiduguri which you claimed to be the owner and thereby committed an Offence Contrary to Section 320 (a) of the Penal Code Law Cap. 102 Laws of Borno State and Punishable under Section 323 of the same Law."


The defendant pleaded 'guilty' to the charge when it was read to him.  In view of his plea, prosecution counsel,   A. I Arogha, prayed the court to convict and sentence the defendant accordingly.


Justice Fadawu thereafter sentenced and convicted him to year imprisonment, with an option of fine of N200, 000 (Two Hundred Thousand Naira only).


Mustapha’s journey to the Correctional Centre began when he was arrested by operatives of the Maiduguri’s Zonal Command of the EFCC for obtaining the sum of N3.9million from a petitioner as a payment for a plot of land. He neither delivered the land to the buyer nor returned his money to him.
