Count two reads, “That you,  TITILAYO O.

Meanwhile, the defendant pleaded not guilty to all the charges.

In  view of her plea, the prosecution counsel, Alilu Abubakar asked for a  date for trial to commence, while praying the court to remand the  defendant in the EFCC custody to enable close monitoring as she has a  history of changing addresses or absconding.

However the defence counsel, Garba Zekeri prayed the court to grant his client bail citing the defendant`s state of health.
Justice Bature adjourned the matter till November 6 and 7, 2023.
