convicted and sentenced him to seven years imprisonment for money laundering, has finally landed in prison.
According to a statement by spokesman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , Wilson Uwujaren, on Wednesday, the lawmaker, who was earlier intercepted by EFCC operatives at an Hospital in Lagos on Monday, February 6, was finally remanded in Ikoyi Custodial Centre on Wednesday, February 8, 2023, to commence his prison term.
The Court of Appeal had in a judgement it delivered on July 1, 2022, sentenced Nwaoboshi to prison after it convicted him on a two-count charge of money laundering and also ordered the winding up of his two companies, Golden Touch Construction Project Ltd and Suiming Electrical Ltd, in line with the provision of Section 22 of the Money Laundering Prohibition Act 2021, and their properties forfeited to the Federal Government of Nigeria.
But, the lawmaker, who was not present in court at the time of the ruling, went underground and refused to present himself to the Nigerian Correctional Service . Instead, he proceeded to the Supreme Court, praying the apex court to not only set it aside the judgment of the appellate court but grant him bail, pending the determination of his appeal.But, in a unanimous decision on January 27, 2023, the apex court dismissed the application.
Man, you are toast.
He should join APC and the case against him will die, then he will be free
