Frank, who lives at Railway Quarters Kano is standing trial for the alleged murder of his girlfriend Ummukulsum, an offence contrary to Section 221(b) of the Penal Code.
The defendant led in evidence by his counsel, Mr Muhammad Dan’azumi, said he is a Muslim, an international trader and a Marketer at BBY Textiles Kwari Market Kano.
“In June 2020 Ummukulsum got my phone number from her friend and called to tell me that she loves me, and by the grace of God, she will marry me.
“We started our relationship in July 2020 and she started asking for money. I gave her all she wanted because I loved her.
” I transferred over N60 million to her GT Bank account, N18 million for her to start a business, N4 million house and N6 million for University education among others.
“Whenever I go to pick her up for dinner at home her mum always welcomes me with open arms,” he said.
Frank told the court that in February 2022, the deceased married someone else.
”I was heartbroken and disappointed so I relocated to Abuja.
“She kept calling me and chatting with me on Whatsapp and continued demanding money.
“Ummukulsum later told me she was divorced and asked me to come back to her and promised to marry me for the second time.
He said on Sept.13, 2022 Ummukulsum asked for money to continue her house project in Abuja.
He said he told her that he does not have the money and she got very angry with him and stopped taking his calls.
“She thought I was broke that was why I don’t want to spend much money on her like before.
”She told me that she has found a new love and later sent her picture with the new lover on my WhatsApp which provoked me,” he told the court
