Lagos couple in n553 8m mess arraigned by efcc

It appears you're referring to a news article about a couple in Lagos, Nigeria, who were arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for alleged fraud.

Here's a summary of the article:

A Lagos couple, identified as Nwosu Chukwuma and his wife, Nwosu Chidinma, were arraigned before a Federal High Court in Lagos by the EFCC for allegedly defrauding a company of N553 million.

According to the EFCC, the couple, who are both directors of a company called Nwosu Ventures Limited, allegedly conspired to defraud a company called 8M Global Holdings Limited by issuing a dud cheque worth N553 million.

The EFCC alleged that the couple, who were arraigned on a 10-count charge, committed the fraud between 2017 and 2018. The charges include conspiracy, forgery, and obtaining money by false pretenses.

The EFCC also alleged that the couple used the money to purchase properties and invest in other businesses.

The couple pleaded not guilty to the charges, and their lawyer, Mr. O. A. Ogunbi, asked the court to grant them bail.

The EFCC, however, opposed the bail application, citing the seriousness of the charges and the risk of the couple fleeing the country if granted bail.

The court has adjourned the case to a later date for further proceedings.

It's worth noting that the EFCC is a Nigerian anti-corruption agency that investigates and prosecutes cases of financial crimes, including fraud, money laundering, and other economic offenses.
