Justice Mu'azu Abubakar of the Bauchi Division of the Federal High Court has convicted and sentenced two former accounts officials of Bauchi State

Justice Mu’azu Abubakar of the Bauchi Division of the Federal High Court has convicted and sentenced two former accounts officials of Bauchi State Government to prison for financial misappropriation.

The Bauchi State Ministry of Finance and Economic Development had alleged that both Chindo and Baba printed and issued fake revenue receipts to intending pilgrims to Saudi Arabia for Hajj in 2019. The prosecution further accused the convicts of diverting the money to their personal accounts with the intention of defrauding the state government and innocent people who paid the money rather than pay the sum into the accounts of the pilgrims welfare board.
