A businessman, Musa Zakari, on Tuesday appeared in a Grade I Area Court in Karu, FCT, for allegedly defrauding his friend of N1.3 million.
The Prosecution Counsel, Ade Adeyanju while presenting the case told the court that the defendant collected N1.3 million from his friend, Suleiman Buba.

He said Buba reported the matter at the Maitama Police Station after the job was not forthcoming.
