The others are Iredia Junior Ehis, Awe Macdonald, Azanuwa Junior, Kelvin Akenuwa, Godspower Oghenekohwa, Collins Daniel, Junior Osarobo, Marvis Ogbodaga Osemudiamen, Jephthah Eromosele and Christopher Christian Dickson.


The convicts’ journey to prison began following their arrest based on intelligence on their nefarious activities by operatives of Benin Zonal Command of the EFCC and subsequent arraignment on separate one count charges each bordering on possession of allged proceeds of crime,  false representation and unlawful possession of fraudulent documents, contrary to Sections 17(a) of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission ( Establishment) Act ,2004 and punishable under Section 17(b) of the same Act.


Upon arraignment the defendants pleaded guilty to their respective charges prompting the prosecution counsel, I.M. Elodi, Salihu Ahmed and  KY Bello to pray the court to convict and sentence the defendants accordingly. 


 However, counsel to the defendants pleaded with the court to temper justice with mercy as the defendants were first time offenders who had turned a new leaf.


Justice Ikponmwonba thereafter convicted and sentenced Osemudiamen, Ikponwosa and Ehis to three years imprisonment with an option of Two Hundred Thousand Naira as fine.

The quartet of Akenuwa, Macdonald, Dickson, Oghenekohwa bagged two years imprisonment with an option of One Hundred Thousand Naira fine while Eromosele, Oserobo, and Daniel were sent to three years imprisonment with an option of One Hundred Thousand Naira fine.


The judge sent Junior to two years imprisonment with an option of Two Hundred Thousand Naira fine.
