EFCC arraigns Kano man over alleged N34.8m spaghetti deal

The defendant appeared before Justice Musa Karaye on a one-count charge of criminal misappropriation involving money allegedly belonging to Fahad Adaji.
The charge sheet stated that the alleged offence took place in Kano between September and October 2024.
According to the prosecution, the money was transferred to a First Bank account held by Muazu Abdullahi following Abdulmajid’s instructions. The funds were reportedly meant to facilitate the purchase of IRS Spaghetti from BUA.
Upon the reading of the charge, the defendant denied the allegation by entering a plea of not guilty.
Prosecution counsel, Mustapha Maiwada, subsequently asked the court to fix a date for trial and order the defendant’s remand in a custodial facility.
Justice Karaye granted the request and directed that Abdulmajid be held in a correctional facility pending further proceedings.
