Stealing a N50 ,000 Sony Ericsson mobile phone which belongs to Governor Rauf Aregbesola ,Kelvin Ighodalo, a 31-year-old has been sentenced to 45-year imprisonment by an Osogbo High Court . Ighodalo stole the mobile phone from the pocket of Aregbesola on November 27 , 2010 , at the time the governor was being inaugurated at Government Technical College , Osogbo . Justice Oyejide Falola , who read the case , found Ighodalo guilty on six counts , which included conspiracy , stealing and fraudulent activity . He was sentenced to 10-year imprisonment for the first three counts and five-years each of the last three which included impersonation , obtaining property by falsehood and collusion . Falola , who ruled that Ighodalo deserved the jail term , held that the convict used the mobile phone to receive N500 , 000 from the Owa of Ilesa , Oba Adekunle Aromolaran , whereas he received N200 , 000 from Mr Shengen Rahman , an associate of the governor . The jail term , which Falola pronounced will run simultaneously , implies that Ighodalo is going to spend the next decade behind bars . Assistant principal state counsel , Mr Biodun Badiora , explained to the court that the convict had served six-year imprisonment in Ikoyi prison custody associated with a murder case in 2005 . Counsel to Ighodalo , Mr . Ameachi Ngwu , prayed the court to commit him to community service , emphasizing that the convict must not be incarcerated but instead be located where citizens could see him as a convict .
