He was alleged to have granted N25 million unsecured credit facilities to Investment Micro Finance Bank, formerly called Nsulu Community Bank, which he allegedly owns.
In counts two to five, the defendant was also alleged to have granted unsecured credit of about N4.5 million to Investment Micro Finance Bank.
In count six, he was alleged to have acted as the Managing Director of Imperial Micro Finance Bank as well as that of Chiik Finance and Securities, said not to be a subsidiary of Imperial.
In counts seven to 11, the defendant was alleged to have fraudulently obtained about N29.5million from Imperial Micro Finance Bank in the guise that it was for management of the bank.
He was alleged to have diverted the said funds to Investment Micro Finance Bank.
In count 12, he was alleged to have obtained N10 million from Mega Equities Ltd. on the pretext of helping it to secure shares from Imperial, but diverted same to Chiik Finance and Securities.
In count 13, he was alleged to have fraudulently obtained a culmulative sum of N8.7 million from Imperial Micro Finance Bank and diverted same to the account of Chiik Finance and Securities, with intent to promote illegal banking activities.
Meanwhile, in count 14, the defendant was alleged to have, from 2007 to 2009, obtained a leasehold improvement of about N30.3 million from Imperial Micro Finance Bank and diverted same for personal use.
