A Federal High Court sitting in Ibadan on Monday, sentenced a
21-year-old internet fraudster to six months imprisonment after being
pronounced guilty of impersonation in a one-count charge filed against him by
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC),
Ibadan zonal office.
According to a statement issued by the Head, of Media and
Publicity, EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, 21-year-old Adeleke Oluwaseyi, who claimed to
be “eight months into online dating apprenticeship” when arrested in June,
“operated with the name Patrick Bob, claiming to be an American citizen.”
Uwujaren added that “Adeleke was initially arraigned on a
four-count charge before the counts were reduced to one after sealing a plea
bargain arrangement with the EFCC.
