Dan-Daura, who is said to be a Deputy Suprintendent in the NSCDC, appeared before Justice Dije Aboki of the state High Court on a one-count charge of obtaining by false pretense.
The accused is alleged to have obtained N145,000 from one Yahaya Musa under the guise of securing a job for him in the corps. He denied the charge.

According to the prosecutor, Dan-Daura committed the alleged offence sometime in March 2013.
Prosecution counsel, Musa Isah, asked the court for a trial date after the accused had pleaded not guilty.
However, the defence counsel moved an application praying the court to admit his client to bail pending the determination of the case.
Justice Aboki granted the accused person bail in the sum of N500,000 with one surety who shall be a resident of Kano with a landed property within the court’s jurisdiction.
The case was adjourned to Jan. 25, 2017 for commencement of trial.
