30-year old fraudster, Oluokun bags 20-year jail term in Ibadan
A 30-year-old fraudster identified as Gabriel Adekola Oluokun has been sentenced to 20- year imprisonment in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
DAILY POST gathered on Friday that Oluokun was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment by Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court, Ibadan, Oyo State for defrauding a Taiwanese to the tune of $22,300 . The accused was prosecuted by the Ibadan Zonal Office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on a six-count amended charge of obtaining money by false pretence for which he was found guilty and convicted.
It was learnt that Oluokun’s journey to prison started when the commission received a petition from one Nduka Lucious in which he alleged that the convict collected the sum of $22,300 from him in three instalments on the agreement that he will supply 100 metric tonnes of sesame seeds to one Victoria Xhung, a China-based Taiwanese businesswoman, whom the petitioner represents in Nigeria.
