Woman Drags Ex-lover to Court for Duping and Refusing to Marry Her

 

A 42-year-old man who dumped a 49-year-old lover and secretly went and married another woman has landed in prison custody after he failed to refund the money the ex-lover allegedly gave him to set up his business in Lagos State, according to P.M news.

He was charged before Isolo Magistrate court with obtaining under false pretence and remanded in prison custody at Kirikiri. According to police, Gerald Onuimo allegedly defrauded his jilted lover , Christiana Ojukwu, by obtaining N450, 000 from her under false pretence.

It was gathered that Onuimo met Ojukwu five years ago and he gave her false hope of marrying her, which prompted her to give him the money to invest in his business. The incident happened at Fasehun Street in Ago Palace Way Okota , Lagos where they met and lived.

When Onuimo ’s business eventually picked up, he secretly went and married another woman without Ojukwu’s knowledge and later informed her that he had got married.

 

Jilted by his betrayal, Ojukwu asked Onuimo to refund the money she gave him to equip his shop in 2011 since he had breached their agreement.

Onuimo reportedly refused to refund the money and told her that he had offered her his services worth more than the amount over the years. He also said there was no agreement between them that he would refund her money .
 

Onuimo was dragged to the police station by his former lover from where the case was taken to the court of law. He has been remanded in the prison with a bail condition slammed on him pending on when the case would be concluded.
