Court Orders 21-Year-Old Internet Fraudster To Sweep EFCC Premises For 2 Weeks by GreatAxeMan: 2:21pm On Jun 21, 2022
An FCT High Court in Gwagwalada, FCT, on Tuesday ordered a 21-year-old student, Babatunde Samuel, to clean the premises of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for two weeks for internet fraud.

Samuel pleaded guilty to cheating filed by the EFCC and begged the court for leniency.

Delivering judgment, Justice Aliyu Shafa, ordered Samuel to clean the EFCC premises from 8 a.m to 10 a.m for two weeks under supervision.

Justice Shafa also ordered Samuel to undergo counselling by EFCC legal department for a period of one month.

Shafa, also ordered the convict to enter a bond to be of good behaviour for a period of two years from 21st June 2022 to 21st June 2024.

Shafa ordered that the items (laptop and cell phone) used to perpetuate the crime be burnt.

Shafa warned him to desist from committing crimes and be of good behaviour.

The convict in his allocutus pleaded with the court to tamper justices with mercy, adding that he would not indulge in such act again.

“I regret involving myself in internet fraud, I will never do it again I promise,” he said.

The Defence Counsel, Mr E. G. Inalegw, in support of the allocutus by the convict told the court that Samuel, who had no previous conviction record in Nigeria was remorseful and repentant.

”Samuel is the first son of his aged mother who is currently hospitalised, he just finished his secondary education and gained admission into the university.

“He moved down to Abuja to seek for greener pastures but ended himself into internet fraud,” Inalegw pleaded.

Inalegw pleaded with the court to tamper justices with mercy, promising that the convict would not repeat such again.

Also, an amicus curiae, Sylvester Ogbelu, pleaded with the court to consider the age of the convict and grant him non custodial sentence especially with the condition of the mother who was aged and currently very sick in the hospital.

Earlier, the EFCC Counsel, Khalid Sanusi told the court that Samuel, alias Andy Wong through his Facebook sometimes in 2021 cheated by pretending to be a Chinese oil and gas engineer based in Italy.

Sanusi said Samuel, in that regard tricked his victim by name Karen with intent to obtain the sum of 10,000 dollars.

The offence, he said, contravened the provisions of Section 321 of the Penal Code and punishable under Section 322.

Non- custodial sentencing. We need a research on this sanctioning technique in the Nigerian criminal justice system, in order to determine its efficacy for rehabilitation and against recidivism.
I say this because, I feel the African man is only amenable to a very severe deterrent sanction. For example, the law on "okada" in Lagos seem to be working now only because they are beginning to crush seized bikes.

Expect more criminals, penalty is too poor

abobote:

They rewarded them presidential ticket

And Peter Obi...

Any leader operate under APC and PDP are criminal.

Before you defend any politicians, swear with your life that the person is saint.

This punishment is unlikely to deter others from becoming a scammer.

We are surely treating criminals with kid gloves.

Lol cheesy
Him go sweep,

This generation is getting scary,
It is people like this fraudster that make all these youngsters turn to crime full-time.

You will see a 20/21 year-old boy that believes he is already a failure in life just because he is not driving a Benz already!

You see teenagers killing and using their girlfriends for rituals, 15, 16, 17 year olds!!!


SAY NO TO FRAUD GUYS.

It kills you before your time and bring shame and reproach to your family.

Guys,
Legit Hustle is the way to a good and beautiful life,
That you will enjoy your money with peace of mind.
Keep pushing on guys, One day Hustle go pay.
God no go shame una

Despite all the antagonism you sometimes face here, I want to believe that in the depth of your heart you are a good person. Might not necessarily see eye-to-eye with you on several of your opinions (the political ones) but when it comes to issues of empathy and humanity I'm often amazed at how I align with your views and positions. Continue being you irrespective of whether I (or the several other haters here) like you or not
You know nothing everyone likes the truth but we will always say it.
Truth is not bitter, People are just bitter to the truth
And talking about political affinity,
We respect everyone's choice.
Those who are with us and those who love our darling country are more than the haters.

Even if he was told to be eating suya in court, he is now a Convict and that will appear in his records for life.
Let him try applying for Visa, they will ask him to write it there.

Hmmm

Good judge, I like this case.

The boy can't afford to be in jail now while his mother is hospitalized and considering his age and being a first offender.

The judge deserves a medal
