A Nigerian actor named Emeka Okonkwo is in jail. An Accra Circuit Court made the decision to remand him.
He is facing charges of defrauding a Ghanaian businessman. The amount involved is GH¢180,000.
The alleged fraud took place recently in Accra. The alleged crime was reported to the police.
Okonkwo reportedly pretended to be a dealer in gold. This allowed him to deceive the businessman.
The case was brought before the Accra Circuit Court. The court heard details of the alleged crime.
After hearing the arguments, the judge decided to remand the actor. This means he will stay in custody while the investigation continues.
He has not yet been found guilty. The court will hear more about the case in the coming weeks.
This incident highlights the dangers of impersonation and fraud.
