A Federal High Court in Ibadan has sentenced an Ibadan-based internet fraudster (Yahoo boy) to a four-month jail term for sharing pornographic and indecent images through his email address.

The convict, Oyesanmi Ayomikun Oluwaseun, pleaded guilty to a one-count amended charge brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Ibadan Zonal Office.

Sequel to his lawyer’s request for a plea bargain and the suspect’s display of remorse during investigation, the commission dropped the initial six-count charge of documents forgery and obtaining through false pretence preferred against him, and replaced same with the lone-count charge of sending pornographic and indecent pictures.
