A 39-year-old businessman, Busayo Afolami, who allegedly obtained N22.6 million from two men under pretext of importing vehicles for them, was yesterday arraigned before a Lagos Magistrate’s Court sitting in Igbosere.
The Prosecutor, Sergeant Chinedu Njoku, told the court that the defendant committed the alleged offences sometime in June 2013, at 1, Oba Aladejobi Ikeja GRA, Lagos, and sometime in October 2013, at 53, Olugbede Street, Akowonjo, Lagos respectively.

The prosecutor also alleged that the defendant threatened the life of Olatunbosun by calling him on phone to forget the said money.
