Female banker defrauds Emir of Kano of N17million

A female banker identified as Amina Magaji, who
works with one of the old generation banks has
reportedly defrauded the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado
Bayero, to the tune of N17million.

The Emir reportedly opened the account with the
said bank in 1967 but left it dormant over the years
and the amount in the account grew to N46million.
Amina who is highly placed in the bank got tempted
and deceptively requested for a cheque book,
claiming it was for the emir. She started operating
the account and withdraw monies from the account
to the tune of N17million.

Her immediate boss eventually noticed the difference
in the signature of the Emir they have in their file and
that of the signature on a cheque Amina presented
and alerted the authorities.
Amina who is said to be married to a top staff of a
broadcast organisation is currently in the custody of
the EFCC alongside 12 colleagues who have been
identified as accomplices. The bank has however
raised the 17million from the accounts of Amina and
her other accomplice and returned to the Emirs
account
