A man who allegedly impersonated Joshua Alabi, a member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), to defraud a member of the Council of State, has appeared in court.

Nurudeen Abdul Ganew, 40, has been charged with impersonation and defrauding by false pretences.

Ganew, a businessman together with his two brothers, Nurudeen Rashid and Nurudeen Gafaru, have been jointly charged with conspiracy to commit crime by an Accra Circuit Court.

They have denied the various charges and have been admitted to bail in the sum of GH¢150,000 with three sureties, one of whom must be justified.
