Justice Mohammed Abubakar of the Federal High Court sitting in Abeokuta, Ogun State, has jailed sixteen internet fraudsters.

The judge gave his ruling on Friday, according to a statement by Dele Oyewale, spokesman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Those convicted were found guilty of criminal impersonation and possession of documents containing false pretences.

The convicts, all in their mid-20s, pleaded guilty to one-count charge of impersonation separately filed against them by the EFCC.

Prosecution counsels, Bashir Shamsuddeen, and Abdulrasheed Lanre Suleiman, then prayed the court to convict them accordingly.

According to the breakdown of the jail terms, Odebode was sentenced to two months imprisonment.
