By Kenneth Atavti

An FCT High Court in Apo yesterday ordered two business men, Moses Esuga, and Nasir Mohammed, to be remanded in Kuje prison over their alleged roles in a N110 million fraud.

The EFCC charged Esuga, former Managing Director of Wise Health Service Ltd and Mohammed former Managing Director of Garana Travels and Tours Limited with nine counts bordering on fraud, criminal breach of trust and forgery.

Justice Valentine Ashi, who gave the order, adjourned the case to today for hearing of their bail application.

Earlier, the Prosecutor, Mr Aliyu Bokani, told the court that the defendants committed the alleged offences between July 2013 and 2014.

Bokani also alleged that Esuga took the N10 million domiciled in operational account of Wise Health Service Ltd and converted it his personal use.

The prosecutor alleged that the defendants conspired and forged a board resolution title of the sum of N50 million fix deposits from Wise Health Service Ltd.

After the charges were read to them they pleaded not guilty.

The prosecutor said that the offences contravened the provisions of Sections 315,289 and 97 of the Penal Code.
