You thereby committed an offence to wit: mutilation, contrary to and punishable under Section 21 (1) of the Central Bank of Nigeria Act, 2007”.


He pleaded guilty to the charge.    Justice Giwa-Ogunbanjo thereafter convicted and  sentenced Ikechukwu to one year imprisonment from the date of arraignment with an option of fine of N300, 000. 00 (Three hundred thousand Naira).
