A professional footballer, Jacob Wisdom Chukwuemeka, has been sentenced to 12 years imprisonment, for offences bordering on internet fraud and possession of fraudulent funds in Kwara State.<\/p>\n

Justice Muhammed Sani of the Federal High Court sitting in Ilorin, sentenced Chukwuemeka on Monday, October 4, 2022.<\/p>\n

Chukwuemeka was jailed, after pleading guilty to two-count charges bordering on possession of fraudulent funds, owing to his arraignment by the Ilorin Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.<\/p>\n

Count one of the charge reads: \u201cThat you, Jacob Wisdom Chukwuemeka between 6th May 2021 and 22nd April 2022 within the jurisdiction of this Honorable Court did retain the control of the gross sum of N792,454.00 (Seven Hundred and Ninety Two Thousand, Four Hundred and Fifty Four Naira Only) in your bank account number 3137249795 with the name: Jacob Wisdom Chukwuemeka domiciled with First Bank Plc which you knew to be proceeds of criminal conduct and thereby committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 17 (a) and (b) of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission<\/a> (Establishment) Act 2004\u201d<\/p>\n

He pleaded guilty to the charge when it was read to him.<\/p>\n

Consequent on his plea, prosecuting counsel, Aliyu Adebayo, prayed the court to convict and sentence him as charged.<\/p>\n

In his judgment, Justice Sani sentenced Chukwuemeka to three years imprisonment<\/a> on count one and two respectively, which are to run concurrently. He was, however, given an option of fine of N792,454.00 (Seven Hundred and Ninety-Two Thousand, Four Hundred and Fifty-Four Naira Only) on count one, and N300,000 (Three Hundred Thousand Naira Only) on count two. The i-phone 11 he used to commit the crime and a draft of N250,000 (Two Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira Only) were forfeited to the Federal Government.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In addition, the court ordered the convict to restitute his victim, the sum of N524,454.00 (Five Hundred and Forty Two Thousand, Four Hundred and Fifty Four Naira Only) being the balance of the proceeds of his fraudulent dealings against him.<\/p>\n

Chukwuemeka\u2019s journey to the Correctional Centre began, when he was arrested by operatives of the Ilorin Zonal Command of the EFCC, for retaining suspicious funds in his bank accounts. He was investigated and could not account for the funds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
