Banker bags one year for fraud in Ibadan

A 51-year-old banker Yetunde Iyabo Adewunmi was on Tuesday sentenced to one year imprisonment for conspiracy, aiding and abetting fraud.

Adewunmi was convicted of the one-count amended charge preferred against her by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Ibadan zonal office, before Justice Peter Lifu of the Federal High Court 2, sitting in Osogbo, Osun State.

Investigation conducted by officials of the Commission had revealed that the convict used her position as a staffer of a new generation bank in Ile Ife, Osun State to forge two identity cards for one Abayomi Samuel Onalaja, an internet fraudster, to enable him make two Western Union transactions received from his foreign victims.
