UNDERGRADUTE JAILED OVER YAHOO-YAHOO .



A High Court sitting in Ibadan, Oyo State, has on Tuesday, June 25, 2013, convicted and sentenced Akinluyi Akintunde, a 24- year- old Agronomy undergraduate student of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso to three years imprisonment without an option of fine.

Akintunde was arraigned before Justice Akintunde Abbas on March 13, 2013 on a two count charge of obtaining money under false pretence. He allegedly obtained the sum of $450.00 from one Robert Jackson (an American) via Western Union Money Transfer under a false pretence that he was a lady.

Justice Abass, in his judgement, ordered that the sum of $450 recovered from the convict be returned to the victim, Robert Jackson through the United States Consulate as restitution.

Also, he also ordered that the laptop recovered from the convict in the course of his arrest be forfeited to the Federal Government.
