A 68-year-old man, Oyerinde Adebayo, was, on Friday, arraigned before an Ado-Ekiti Chief Magistrates’ Court over an alleged N1.8 million land fraud.
Adebayo, whose address was not provided, is facing a two-count charge of breach of peace and fraud.
He, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The Prosecutor, Insp Johnson Okunade, told the court that the defendant committed the offences on March 6, 2019, in Ado-Ekiti.
Okunade said that the defendant collected the money from the complainant, Mr Olajide Sunday, on the pretext that he would provide him parcels of land, which he failed to do.
