The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibadan zonal office, on Friday, February 12, 2021 secured the conviction of a former Deputy Chief Registrar of the Oyo State High Court, Mutiat Omobola Adio, Insidenaija reports.

She was convicted after pleading guilty to a fresh charge bordering on obtaining money by false pretense and issuance of Dishonored Cheque contrary to Sections 419 of the Criminal Code Law, Cap. 38, Laws of Oyo State, 2000 and Section 1 (1) (b) of the Dishonored Cheque (Offences) Act, Cap. D11, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.

Adio is alleged to have obtained a 2000 Model Toyota Pathfinder SUV valued at N1, 500,000 (One Million and Five Hundred Thousand Naira) from one Fabunmi Olatunji Samuel of Fatai Olanrewaju Motors by pretending to him that it would be paid once the cheque she issued him in the said value is presented to her bank.

The victim released the said vehicle to her but the cheque was dishonoured within three months of issuance for in sufficient funds in the account.

Upon arraignment on January 30, 2018, the defendant had initially pleaded not guilty to the charges but later changed her plea to 'guilty', after a plea bargain agreement leading to the amendment of the charge.

Justice Owolabi thereafter pronounced defendant guilty of the offence and sentenced her to three years in prison.

The Court also ordered her to restitute to her victim one Fabunmi Olatunji Samuel of Fatai Olanrewaju Motors the sum of N500,000 (Five Hundred Thousand Naira) in addition to the sum of N1,000,000 (One Million Naira) she had previously paid in restitution of the victim.

With the latest development, Adio completes a hattrick of convictions having previously been jailed twice for fraud On May 18, 2018, she was sentenced to seven years imprisonment for obtaining N9.2 million from one Abiodun Olonade, a Nigerian resident in Ireland, by false pretence.

Also, on March 6, 2020 she was convicted and sentenced to five years in prison for stealing a sum of N22,375,913 (Twenty-Two Million, Three Hundred and Seventy-Five Thousand, Nine Hundred and Thirteen Naira), from Guaranty Trust Bank Plc.

A typical example of ‘person wey sabi law deh break law’. She should go and face the law. Na she sabi.

I say after God, fear women ooo

The problem with the black is that they like 2 live above their means hence living a fake life and this is so common among celebrities too
If u cant buy a car,get keke or bike they are all for mobility
If you cant get Turkey buy fish or crayfish they are all rich in protein

Dont go to church or mosque and claim to be big by making huge vow u cant pay as these will push u to stealing if care is not taking
Dont promise what u cant give
Dont rent a duplex when u are sure u have no money to maintain the rent if care is not taking u will b pushed out someday for failure to pay rent

Dont rent in lekki when u knw that u belong to ikorodu

Lastly dont let a woman make u cry tomorrow by making u put hands in things u cant keep or maintain

Pray to God for increase all will b well some day
