Appeal court jails UBEC chairman 41 years A five-man panel of the Court of Appeal sitting in Sokoto and presided over by Justice Hannatu Sankey has sentenced the Chairman of the Zamfara State Universal Basic Education Board, SUBEB, Murtala Adamu Jengebe to a cumulative jail term of 41 years. Mr Jengebe was convicted by the court after the appellate court found him guilty on the seven out of the 10 counts for which he was earlier acquitted at the Federal High Court, Gusau, Zamfara State. In the lead judgment of the court read by Justice Habeeb Abiru, the earlier acquittal of the embattled chairman by a Federal High Court in Gusau was set aside. The appellate court held that the prosecution has proved beyond reasonable doubt seven out of the ten counts of the money laundering charge brought against him by the EFCC. He was consequently sentenced to five years imprisonment on each of four of the counts and seven years each on three other counts respectively. However, the court ordered that the sentences shall run concurrently. It would be recalled that on May 12, the Federal High Court sitting in Gusau presided over by Justice Z.B Abubakar discharged and acquitted the convict on the 10 counts charge of Money Laundering but convicted him for engaging in private business while he was still in public service. An offence he was never charged for by the commission. Dissatisfied with the judgement of the lower court, the prosecution approached the Court of Appeal seeking it to set aside the judgement of the lower court. https://dailynigerian.com/appeal-court-jails-ubec-chairman-41-years/?fbclid=IwAR1siSseTYU1HrkGVlgGS81-vSH7tgTFp7DPQcqDrTwWPwYSWupxwq0F4K0 5 Likes |

It is fine as justice seems to have been served. The way these public servants abuse trust is alarming. You will see them so rich you would wonder why they aren't on Forbes list of billionaires and what exactly they do apart from their seemingly ill-paying job. We do not only recommend jail but also total recovery of loot and profits cum interests therefrom. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

The Nigerian judicial system is so bleeped up with their concurrent nonsense Someone steals billions of naira and you jail him for about 7 years because of concurrent law. I would gladly go to jail for 7 years knowing I have billions in my account 11 Likes |

Rubbish judgment. Why should the sentence run concurrently? This means he'll be paroled in 5 or 6 years time. Nonsense judgment 5 Likes 2 Shares
