An Abuja High Court on Monday sentenced Yakubu Yusuf, the former head of the Police Pension Board, to two years in prison.
Unfortunately, he was given an option of N250,000 (two hundred and fifty thousand naira only) to avoid the jail sentence. This means he'll walk away just like Ex-Gov Lucky Egbinedion.This man has already pleaded guilty to the embezzlement of N23.3 billion and is to forfeit property valued at a meager N325 million. So why such a ridiculous amount of fine?
What is N250,000 compared to N23.3 billion?
