Justice Inuwa, on Thursday, May 2 2024, convicted and sentenced 27 of the convicts while the rest 14 were convicted on Friday, May 3, 2024. Those convicted on May 3 are: Chiadi, Samuel, Chinecherem, Timothy, Stanley, Bright, Iwu, Lukman, Nweke, Chukwuemeka, Okafor, Stephen, Chiemerie and Christian to one-year imprisonment each with an option of fine of N100,000.00 (One Hundred Thousand Naira).

All the convicts bagged their imprisonment when they were arrested for their involvement in internet fraud. They were charged to court and convicted.

Repent now of your sinful evil ways to avoid spending your eternity in hell fire after you die. Jesus Christ love and warns you to repent and convert now to Christianity to avoid hell fire. Only Jesus Christ can save you by his death on the cross and his blood which washes away your sins, any other ways ( Islam, paganism, Hinduism, atheism, etc) can not save you. Be wise while you still have the chance accept Jesus Christ now and save your soul from hell. Be wiser than Satan and follow the one true God. This is the eternal truth from the spiritual realm |

Airlord2030:Absolutely no need for this senseless comment………..crime and Offences are not synonymous to only one tribe in the country, Or race in the world. Anyone could steal, kill, embezzle and vandalize. No need stirring up a hornets nest with your inciting comments and displaying your fear and dislike for another man’s race or tribe. Receive Sense |
