Mohammed, a former staff of NITEL/MTEL, was prosecuted by the Gombe Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on a one-count charge of intent to defraud. He pleaded guilty to the charge.
The judgment was delivered on Friday, May 30, 2024, following their guilty pleas to separate charges of intent to defraud, brought against them by the Gombe Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission .
