The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) today arraigned
Aliyu Gebi of the House of Representatives before the Federal Capital
Territory High Court, Abuja on a 13-count charge of issuing dud cheques
worth over 125 million Naira to one Usman Mustapha.
According to the EFCC, one of the charges reads as follows: “That
you, Hon. Aliyu Gebi, being the owner and sole signatory of Craft
Technology Ltd and Craft Technology Ltd on or about the 12/01/2012 at
Abuja Judicial Division of the High Court of the Federal Capital
Territory did obtain credit by issuing a UBA Plc cheque No. 00091852 in
the sum of N10,000.000.00 (Ten Million naira) only in favour of Musty
Petroleum Ltd. which when presented within three months was dishonored
on the ground that there was insufficient fund in the account and
thereby committed an offence punishable under section 1 (b) (I) of the
dishonored cheque ( offences) Act, 2004 Laws of the Federation of
Nigeria.”
Justice Abba Mohammed granted the accused person bail on
self-recognition and ordered that he deposit his international passport
with the EFCC and to report to the Commission whenever he is needed.
Trial was set for February 19, 2013.
