especially the statement of account of the 5th Defendant that showed disbursement of N20,000,000.00 to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Defendants, it is crystal clear from the prosecution evidence that there was a pretence by the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Defendants of the existence of Houses nos 84 and 11B earlier mentioned in this judgment. And it is also in evidence that the pretence emanated from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Defendants that such Houses had been put up for sale by the Ad-Hoc Committee on sale of Federal Government of Nigeria Houses and that the nominal complainant and her husband to prove capacity to buy the Houses which information or pretence they know or knew to be false.

I therefore hold the view that the prosecution has proved the ingredients of the offences contained in counts 2 and 3 of the amended charge against the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Defendants beyond reasonable doubt and I so hold.
