The convicts are Ismail AbdulBasit,  Oladipo Victor, Ibrahim Oluwatosin,  Ayantola  Samuel, Musbau  Atomo and Babalola  Oluwadamilare.

The latest conviction brings to 30 the number of persons convicted from the 50 suspects which comprised 48 students of the Kwara State University (KWASU) and two residents of Malete that were arrested during a sting operation by operatives of the Ilorin zonal command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over internet fraud related offences on February 21, 2024.

They were convicted and sentenced to various jail terms on Tuesday after the court found them guilty of the separate counts brought against them by the EFCC.

Upon their pleas, counsel to the EFCC, Innocent Mbachie and Charles Oni reviewed the facts of the cases and tendered the statements of the defendants.

The prosecutor also tendered in evidence items recovered from the suspects at the point of arrest including the various sums of money, which they benefited from the unlawful activities which were not controverted by the defence.

In her judgement, Justice Evelyn Anyadike ordered the trio of Ibrahim, Babalola and Oluwatosin to pay a fine of N200,000  each while ordering Oladipo, Ismail and Ayantola to pay a sum of N100,000 each as fine.

The judge also ordered that all phones which the convicts used as instruments of the crime and the money, which they brought as restitutions be forfeited to the federal government.
