The couple were arraigned in the chamber of the magistrate.
Chief Magistrate Adeola Olatubosun ordered that the couple be held in Ikoyi Correctional Centre until their bail conditions are fulfilled. Olatubosun granted them bail at N10 million each, with two responsible sureties each in a similar amount
However, she adjourned the case until May 13 for a substantive trial.
The prosecutor, ASP Rita Momah, informed the court that the couple, along with others who are still at large, committed the offenses on July 13, 2023, at Oba Ayoka St, Lagos.
Momah alleged that the couple and one Chijioke Ezekirian conspired to steal and receive proceeds of sales from Climax Lubricants Industries in Lagos
She asserted that the couple received a total sum of N33.8 million through Fidelity Bank KPICPC account numbers 2033723459 and 5600923549 from Ezekirian.
Momah stated that these actions contravene Sections 328(1) and 411 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
