Count one of the charge against Jesse reads: “Omokoh
Orowo Jesse, Ifeanyi Oro (still at large), Emojewe (still at large) and
David (still at large) sometime in 2012 at Ibadan within the Ibadan
Judicial Division with intent to defraud conspired to obtain the sum of
$70,000 from one Jette Jacobs, a 67-year-old
Australian woman under the false pretense that the money represents
payment for marriage engagement processes between you and her in Nigeria
and which pretense you knew was false”.
Jesse pleaded not guilty to all nine charges read
against him. The judge declined bail and Jesse was remanded at the Agodi Prison until July 10 2014 for the next hearing.Source: Sahara Reporters
