Sensationalist headline at its finest, lol.

The convicted man would spend only 7 years in prison because his sentences are to run at the same time, not consecutively.

Until Nigerian youth start fighting for their right, this is how they will be treated by the system that has refused to empower them. 35 fucking years for a fraudster, when he is not a murderer? shocked in the same Ilorin where Saraki don suck them dry and still gets standing ovation whenever he wants to say something in that backward town call Ilorin.


PS: I am never in support of yahoo boys in any way before you guys start coming for my head grin. I just think it's totally unfair and double standard against Nigeria youth when snakes and gorilla are eating billions and no one has been prosecuted for it.

From the calculations it is 7 years cus he was sentenced for the 5 charges, 7yrs for each and they will run concurrently ie at the same time.

The post say 5 count charges for 7 years each to run 'concurrently'.

concurrently
/kənˈkʌrəntli/

Is an adverb.
Meaning
'at the same time; simultaneously.'


If the 7 years runs at the same time or simultaneously as the post say, it means all the 5 7 years starts from day one and end in the 7th year.

Good!!!!
That is the kind of sentence these criminals and corrupt politicians should be sentenced to....without any option of fine.
Not all those rubbish 3 months and 6months jail terms.

But......those 35 years sentence are actually 5 "7 year" sentences which are to run *concurrently*, so he gets to spend only 7 years in jail.

That's still not too bad...7 years is enough to grow some sense in jail.
More of these pleeease!!!!
Very good one... more of this kind of judgement

Justice M. Abdulgafar of a Kwara State High Court sitting in Ilorin today convicted and sentenced an internet fraudster, Ajayi Temitope Charles to 35 years in prison without an option of fine.

A statement from EFCC says Charles was first arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on March 13, 2019 for engaging in internet fraud.

One of the five count charges against him reads: “That you, Ajayi Temitope Charles, popularly known as Teresa Simons on or about the 27th of February, 2019, in Ilorin within the jurisdiction of this honourable court, with intent to defraud, had in your possession document, which you knew contained false pretence, and thereby, committed an offence contrary to Section 6 and 8(b) of the Advance Fee Fraud and other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006 and punishable under Section 1(3) of the same Act.”

He had pleaded “not guilty” to the charges, prompting the commencement of his trial.

However, at the end of the trial, Justice Abdulgafar ruled that the EFCC proved its case against him, “beyond reasonable doubts”.

The trial judge held that: “The evidence of PW1, Olamide Sadiq was left unchallenged by the defendant, all the chats and text messages were printed from his email address in his presence.

“I have considered the testimonies of the PW1, this honourable court is of the opinion that the PW1 is a witness of truth, the Accused Person indeed was in possession of fake documents, and the prosecution has sufficiently linked the defendant to the email address.”

Delivering judgement, Justice Abdulgafar, further rejected as untrue, the testimony of the convict where he claimed that the Police brought him to the office of the EFCC on the day of his arrest following his inability to pay the money they requested for.

“The story of the defendant being sent to the EFCC because he did not pay bribe to the police could not hold water, he lied to the court, I do not believe the evidence of the defendant, and the prosecution has proved this case beyond reasonable doubt,” the trial judge said.

Thereafter, Justice Abdulgafar pronounced him guilty as charged.

Before sentencing, defence counsel, A.B. Bakare, in his allocutus, appealed for mercy, and urged the court to temper justice with mercy, stressing that his client was a first-time offender.

Counsel for the EFCC, Ola Sesan, however, opposed the request and urged the court to sentence him according to the provisions of the law.

“Going by the provisions of the Advance Fee Fraud and other Fraud Related Offences Act, the minimum punishment for this type of offence is seven years and maximum of 20 years, the court cannot use its discretion outside the same,” he said.

Justice Abdulgafar, thereafter, sentenced him to seven years in prison on each of the five counts. The sentence is to run concurrently.

Many dumb people on Nairaland. ... he is going to serve 7 years for each of the offense, but to run concurrently, I.e. at the same time. And prison calendar is day and night, so he is actually going to spend 3.5years

nah that's not how it works.... In the jail system, 12 hours is considered a day... So he is going to serve 17.5 years... Which is very good for this kind of crime, honestly they have become too bold

Where did you hear this fable?

African experts.

There's no such thing as 12 hours considered as a day, like many Nigerians popularly believe.
