The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arraigned an alleged fake Army General, Bolarinwa Oluwasegun Abiodun, before Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo of a Lagos Special Offences Court Ikeja.

Abiodun was arraigned on a 13-count charge, bordering on forgery, falsely represented himself as a General in the Nigerian Army, and obtained the sum of N266,500,000 from Kodef Clearing Resources Limited.

The offence also contravened Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act No 14 of 2006 punishment under section 1 of the same Act. The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge. Following his plea of not guilty, the EFCC Counsel, Abbas Omeiza Muhammed, prayed the court to remand the defendant.
