63 years in prison for stealing N4.9million may sound so harsh....

The law will take its course I guess... Read the EFFCC press statement after the cut....

Justice Oluwatoyin Ipaye of the Lagos State High Court sitting in Ikeja has convicted and sentenced one Benjamin Segun Bright to 63 years imprisonment without option of fine. The convict was arraigned on July 10, 2012 by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for stealing the sum of N4,994,000( Four Million, Nine Hundred and Ninety-Four Thousand Naira only from various investors, whom he deceived by making them believed that their money would be invested in his purported companies.
The convict pleaded not guilty at the point of arraignment. He went through trial and was found guilty of all the twenty-one count charges preferred against him. Justice Ipaye sentenced the convict to three years imprisonment on each of the21 count charges without option of fine. The sentences are to run concurrently.
