A High Court in Maiduguri, Borno State, on Wednesday, fined a man N100,000 for about N20 million fraud perpetrated against a foreign organisation.
The court convicted and sentenced Muhammad Abdullahi Kulloma to one-year imprisonment for the fraud, but with an option of N100,000 fraud, according to a statement by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Mr Kulloma, according to the EFCC’s statement, duped Abdulwahab Aji in August 2020 to deliver N19,950,000 to him under the guise of executing a contract for the supply of water pumps awarded by the Norwegian Refugee Council, a non-governmental organisation.
