Justice Aliyu delivered the judgement under section 3 (2) of the miscellaneous act and said the judgement will serve as a deterrent to occupiers of public office holders who may want to filter resources meant for developmental projects.
The judge convicted Elias on count 3 and 4 charges and imprisoned him to 10 years on each charge though the two convictions would run concurrently.
“I hereby sentenced the first accused, John Babani Elias for 10 years imprisonment on count 3 and another 10 years imprisonment on count 4 but the two sentences will run concurrently. In addition, the first convict must return/refund the sum of N51.5 million to Adamawa state local Government joint account fund from where it was stolen and diverted by him and his Coy. With regards to the second convict ALHAKIM NIGERIA LIMITED, I sentenced it to pay a fine of N5 million on the offenses in count 3 and 4 it is convicted of. In addition, the company would wound up by Corporate Affairs Commission as provided by section 3(2) of the miscellaneous offenses and all its assets forfeited to federal government of Nigeria,” he said

God bless this Judge so shall it always be henceforth.... Amen
Dey ve been sentenced but will dey serve d jail term?
Why is that they are always prosecuting only aboki them? That means aboki them be the worst thieves
Just 10 years for 51mill and somebody is going to die by hanging for stealing 14,540K. What a criminal justice system we have?
U re very dull. D oda one was an armed rubber caught with arms. Olodo
The very first scape goat, others thieves ar coming God bless Nigeria
Wish I read this kind of stuff every other day.....just one out of millions but this development brings hope to the innocent Nigerian....kudos !!!

This guy got ten years because he stole money belonging to rich men, if it were pension funds, he would get a slap on the wrist because let's be honest, this country was made for the sustenance of the rich not the poor.
Pls don't just jail him, retrieve d money, and be accountable in d spending of d loot
Gd 4 dem only if dey wil serve it
10yrs isn't 10months tho!
Our jail now wil b filled wit de riches
Hehehehehe

Good but those stealing billions should also be jail.
my uncle...
Job well done pls collect the money from him it will help our economy
They serve him right. Change is here already.
That sentence too small now,but all the same that will serve as lesson to others. TIMILEYIN BLESSING
Hmmm EFCC should better b fair, so many APC members are corrupt,theirs are evn rated in billions yet we haven't heard anything abt them being jailed
When they jail pple like Amachi, Bukola nd former minister of petroleum then I will applaud them
Them don fuck you, sorry sis that you were the victim, na the one wey pain you pass you dey talk.
Turn by turn
WARNING! Don't do this after eating
and they killed a poor man for stealing 14k, but this buhari's brother get's a jail term? smh,
Next is your daddy Jonathan...cant wait.
That's good......they will all be caught

ALL na wash? liars!
He obviously didn't steal enough to buy his freedom. Those who stole billions are walking around free & negotiating their freedom.
You know most times, when things like this begin to happen in a place like Nigeria, you are ambivalent as to whether it is real or just a smokescreen to divert people's attention a bit and continue the real deal. I hope the Change mantra has actually begin to take it's right course although am sure this man could be just a scapegoat for the Oga at the top.
