GISTLOVER earlier reported that Idris Okuneye, a well-known Nigerian crisis counsellor who goes by Bobrisky, has finally received a prison term without the possibility of a fine.
The identified “mummy of Lagos,” who recently attended a party where naira was misused, will serve six months in prison.
During an early April 12 court session, Justice Abimbola Awogboro of the Federal High Court in Lagos delivered the ruling.
Recall that Bobrisky was charged on six counts, including money laundering and abuse of the Naira, by the EFCC on April 5.
However, once he admitted to the crime, the court dropped the money laundering charges against him but found him guilty of Naira abuse. Additionally, the court ruled that he be kept in the custody of the EFCC in Lagos.
The judge also adjourned hearing for judgement into the case to April 9. However, the court couldn’t sit due to the April 9 to April 11 Eid-Fitri public holiday.
