Oluwo, a computer and handset dealer at the computer village, Ikeja Lagos was led in evidence by the prosecution team.
He identified Chidinma as a customer who earlier made a purchase of a phone at their office on April 30th 2021, and later returned on June 18th 2021, when she offered the sale of a MacBook Pro valued at $1,200 which he negotiated for N495,000 after market value comparison and due diligence to determine the authenticity of the seller by demanding from her an Identification card, license,passport among others.
Oluwo explained that having been convinced that the deal was authentic, he transferred the agreed amount from his UBA account to Chidinma’s Sterling bank account only after the forms were filled and the documents kept in their office as a valid sale.
