A 66-year-old woman, Bimbo Shoremekun, on Friday narrated to a Gudu Upper Area Court, Abuja how she was allegedly duped of N4 million by a church member who posed as house agent.
Shoremekun gave the account at the resumed trial of the “purported’’ house agent, Mary Nenger, 40, on charges of cheating preferred against her by the Police.
The complainant (Shoremekun) who was being examined by the Police prosecution lawyer, Stephanie Abieyuwa, said that she met Nenger through one Chike Indigbo and discovered she was her church member.
“I needed a house to rent and Indigbo told me that the defendant was in charge of a house situated at Ontario Street, Maitama, Abuja.
“The defendant claimed that the owner of the house resides in America and she has the mandate to rent it out.
