Fuel Marketer Buys N496,000 Goods With First Bank Dud Cheques

A boutique operator at 5 Education Close, UNILAG Estate, Magodo, Lagos, Mrs. Bola Omidiji, says her business is on the brink of collapse after a customer paid N496,000 dud cheques for goods bought from her.
 
 
The debtor, Babatope Adeeso, had reportedly bought pairs of shoes, wristwatches, perfumes and clothes, for himself, his wife and children from Omidiji sometime in April 2017.
 
PUNCH Metro learnt that Adeeso, who is an executive member of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Ore depot, had wanted to pay for the items through PoS, which was not available at the shop.
 
He reportedly asked the woman to follow him to a branch of Guaranty Trust Bank in the area to transfer the money via an Automated Teller Machine.
 
Omidiji told our correspondent that after failed attempts to transfer the money, Adeeso collected her account number and promised to effect the payment later that day.
 
She said she became apprehensive when Adeeso did not pay the money into her account several days later and she called him on the telephone.
