Appeal Court affirms five years jail term against college of education workers

The court in a recent decision, disclosed by the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related offences Commission , ruled that the judgement earlier delivered by the Ogun State High Court after it found the culprits guilty of fraud was meritorious.

After the high court decision, one of the defendants appealed its judgement. But in a statement signed by the ICPC’s head of communication, Rasheedat Okoduwa, on Monday, the commission said the Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal for lacking in merit. “One of the convicts, Temilade Yusuf, who was dissatisfied with the sentencing, had approached the Ibadan Division of the Court of Appeal asking the appellate court to dismiss the judgment secured against her by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission .

“ICPC, in a 5-count charge, before Justice A. Akinyemi, said that the trio conspired to commit fraud by converting the money kept in First City Monument Bank by NASU for personal use contrary to Section 19 of the Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Act, 2000 and punishable under the same section.
