Justice Amina Bello of the Kaduna State High Court, sitting in Kaduna State on Wednesday, June 25, 2025 convicted and sentenced one Ezeani Victor Udochukwu to jail for fraud.

He was prosecuted by the Kaduna Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC a one-count charge, bordering on impersonation.

The charge reads: ” That you, Ezeani Victor Udochukwu (a.k.a Ann Sandra)(m) between January and June, 2025 in Kaduna, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, committed an offence, to wit: falsely presenting yourself as Ann Sandra on Facebook (an online social media application), which pretence you knew to be false and thereby committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 142(1) of the Kaduna State Penal Code Law, 2017.”

He pleaded “guilty” to the charge when it was read to him, following which prosecution counsel M.U Gadaka, prayed the court to convict and sentence him accordingly, while the defence counsel pleaded the court to temper justice with mercy, stating his client has become remorseful of his actions.

Justice Bello, thereafter convicted and sentenced Udochukwu to two years imprisonment or pay N300,000.00 (Three Hundred Thousand Naira) fine. In addition, he forfeited iPhone XR, being the tool of his crime to the federal government.

The convict was among those arrested by the Kaduna Zonal Directorate of the EFCC in Sabo Tasha axis and Post Office Road in Kaduna following actionable intelligence that linked them to fraudulent internet activities.
