The defendant, whose home address was omitted, is in court facing two counts of theft and fraud that were brought against him by the police.
The defendant committed the offences at No. 10 Adesina Street, Idimu, Lagos, at some point in February, according to the prosecution, ASP Benedict Aigbokhan.

The accused entered a not-guilty plea to the accusation.
Magistrate I. A. Ariyo granted him bail in the amount of N300,000 with two sureties in the same amount, with the condition that the sureties be in gainful employment and provide proof of tax payments to the Lagos State Government.
It was postponed until September 4th.
