A Federal High Court sitting in Warri, Delta State, has convicted and sentenced 10 people for illegal dealings in petroleum products. They all pleaded guilty to charges brought by the EFCC’s Benin Zonal Directorate. Justice H. A. Nganjiwa handed two-year prison terms to James Terry and Gift Ezewu Godfrey, with the option of a ₦300,000 fine each. Six others received three-year terms, with the same fine option. Sunday Ndem Eyere was given a ₦400,000 fine option, while Anthony Onyebuchi Edekobi was given a ₦350,000 fine option, both alongside three-year terms. The EFCC said the case followed their arrest over suspected activities in Koko, Delta State, after intelligence was received from the Office of the National Security Adviser.
