“Aisha, an auxiliary nurse, was given a N500 note by her boss with an instruction to spend N250 and return the balance. Aisha reportedly failed to return the change, as she purportedly lied to her boss that she gave the money to her mother,” Emuehri said. During proceedings, defence counsel, Mr Ahmed Olatunji, following his application for bail, informed the court that Aisha was recuperating.
