A prosecution witness has narrated how one Bolarinwa Abiodun, a self-professed Army General, posing as the son of former President Olusegun Obasanjo defrauded him of almost N300 million.
Bolarinwa, who is being prosecuted by the EFCC for a 13-count charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretence, forgery of documents, and possession of documents containing false pretence is standing trial before Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo of a Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos.
The Court had on April 25, 2022 refused his bail application on the grounds that the prosecution was able to show that he was a flight-risk. He was first arraigned on April 11, 2022 and he pleaded “not guilty” to all the charges.
