Ex-soccer star Austin Jay Jay Okocha is not the type of a businessman to be messed around with.
A customer visited his night club(Club 10,situated on Saka Tinubu Street,Victoria Island,Lagos) to enjoy himself.And after allegedly drinking and refusing to pay,Okocha handed him over to the police who did not only detain him,but have since dragged him to court.
The 27-year-old man,Henry Orjinta,was arraigned before an Igbosere Magistrate Court,Lagos.And his offence,according to the court,is this: That you,Orjinta,at about 4am at club 10,Saka Tinubu Street,Victoria Island,within the Lagos Magisterial District,did collect drinks worth N245,700 under the pretence that you would pay after consumption and thereby commited an offence punishable under section 313(a), criminal Laws of Lagos State of Nigeria,2011.
Orjinta maintained that he wasn’t guilty on the day the matter came up in court and was granted bail by Magistrate Oshodi Makanju.He allegedly committed the offence on Sunday,April 22,at the hangout which the former Super Eagles captain runs with his gorgeous wife,Nkechi.
According to source,the accused had stormed Club 10 with some of his friends on the above date and ordered for beer for himself and his friends.However,around 4am when the bar tender approached him for payment the story changed,leading to the drama that is now unfolding at the Igbosere Magistrate Court.
