Ndok was arraigned by the FCT Police command before the chief magistrate’s court, Karu on Thursday for issuing a N1, 050,000 dud cheque to Onnyx Hotel and Apartment, Abuja, where she lodged between November 20, 2010 and January 27, 2011 when she was ejected by the hotel management.
She also allegedly issued another dud cheque to Hilton Suites, Abuja for the sum of N500, 000.
The court had ordered that she should be remanded in prison custody till April 19, when the matter would come up for hearing.
The presidential candidate had lodged at the Onnyx Hotel and issued the cheque, which was not honoured by the bank.
The police arrested her after her participation in the last presidential debate. A source said: “The police wanted to pick her immediately after the progamme, but they consider certain things. Instead, the police trailed her and she was picked the following day.”
The Federal Capital Territory police public relations officer, Moshood Jimoh, confirmed that the UNPD presidential candidate was docked for issuing dud cheques to two hotels, in breach of the law.
Jimoh said: “I can confirm that Ndok was arraigned for issuing fake cheques in breach of the law. She was interrogated and a prima facie case was established against her, leading to her arraignment on Thursday.”
