They all pleaded guilty to their respective charges when they were read to them.


Upon their pleas, counsel to the EFCC, Mustapha Kaigama reviewed the facts of the case and tendered the statements of the defendants. He also tendered in evidence items recovered from them at the point of arrest.


Justice Abdulgafar, thereafter, passed  six months’ suspended sentence on each of the defendants and ordered that phones,  laptops and the sum of €100 (One Hundred Euro) and $200USD (Two Hundred Dollars) recovered Akolade be forfeited to the Federal Government.
