Jamilu Musa Esq: What was the money meant for?
DW1:
He gave me the money as an appreciation because he sent me
to go and pay a cheque for him.
Jamilu Musa Esq: You collected a cheque from Nzube Okafor and gave
the cheque to Uwa who filled the cheque and gave it back to
you whom you presented to the bank?
DW1:
Yes but the N2.1 million was never given to me because I
presented a cheque to the bank and the reason was to use the
money to go and learn another work.
Jamilu Musa Esq: I am correct to say that you told Nzube Okafor (PW3)
the purpose for which they are going to use the cheque?
DW1:
No.
Jamilu Musa Esq: What did you tell Nzube Okafor (PW3) when you
gave him N100,000?
DW1:
I told him that Arizona asked me to give him N100,000 for
the cheque he supplied.
Jamilu Musa Esq: Does Nzube Okafor know Arizona?
DW1:
No and when I went to give Uwa the cheque, I went alone.
Jamilu Musa Esq: In your evidence in chief you said you don’t know
anything about dollar in Sokoto state but in your statement
which is Exhibit 8, you confirmed having knowledge of the
dollar business in Sokoto?
DW1:
Exhibit 8 is not my statement because they wrote it and gave
it to me to sign.
Jamilu Musa Esq: I put it to you that you’re fully aware of the business
that was going on between the 4 of you?
DW1:
No I am not aware of anything until the day I was arrested.
Jamilu Musa Esq: That is all for this witness.
