According to reports, Jim Iyke had a case pending in court for about 5 years following allegations fraud levelled against him by Hajiya Habiba.
The actor who was said to have avoided the court for years, was found guilty of the said fraud and ordered to pay the sum of N15.7million to the socialite.
The judgement was delivered in an Abuja court on October 19, 2017.
Jim Iyke was ordered to pay N15.7million to Hajiya Habiba In a previous interview with NigerianFilms, Hajiya Habiba narrated how she met the actor and what transpired between them.
She said:
“You see I don’t know any Jim Iyke before I met him in farmers market with two of his friends Victor and Solomon.
They asked for my number which I didn’t know off head, as I just returned from UK and got the sim card.
So I said I don’t know my number before anything, Jim grab my hand set from my hand and dallied his number from mine, that was the beginning of the nightmare.
Before you know it, in a month he has bombarded me with his family members mom, dad, sisters, his girlfriend then Keturah Hamilton and told me she was pregnant for him but they lost the baby in July 2011.
Well with such development you will think he is honourable because for me to show you my family we must be real friends and there is someone in a month or two was able to do that, awesome!!
From there I didn’t doubt his honesty and integrity didn’t know there was so much to all he was doing.
When the mum came she hardly could walk, so I decided to get her checked, he said she had a doctor in Garki hospital but doesn’t know all the drugs she has been given don’t work and I flew her to the UK thinking she is my mother too and OLD.
Where she told me her full life story which I have on video.
After the trip he brought a business proposal with his friend Solo which I invested in N16.5million, after all I never would think he will have another motive, but that was the beginning of the saga.
After collecting the money he disappeared and asked his family never to answer my calls how do I get him as he too doesn’t pick my calls?
Fortunately his elder sister who lives in Gwagwalada I once visited her (NKIRU) so I remembered and went to her so she called him, and arranged a meeting where we fought and I got him locked up for 3 good days at SARS without bail, that was the best I did to myself to show him my worth, not celebrity but MONEY. It was the best time of my life .”
