Adiatu, who was arraigned alongside Ogbebor Nosa and Olawale Amos before Magistrate E. Ogunkanm, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The police prosecutor, Mr L.O. Mamah, told the court that the accused persons forged a sworn affidavit, police report and a Lagos State electronic tax clearance certificate on November 2, 2006 to commit fraud.
He told the court that the accused persons allegedly forged a letter of consent, Certified True Copy of Certificate of Occupancy of a block of flats in Ijaiye Ojokoro area of Lagos State, belonging to one Yekini Kehinde.
Mamah said: "On January 24, 2007, Ogbebor used the forged Certificate of Occupancy to obtain a credit facility of N6 million from the Intercontinental Bank Plc, sworn to by Adiatu."
After their plea were taken, Adiatu was granted bail on self recognition, while the court attached some conditions to the bail granted the two others.
The lawyer was ordered to deposit a CTC of his Call to Bar Certificate and current Bar Practising Fee receipt to the court Registry.
