Former Adamawa governor Bags 5 Yearsjail Term
A former governor of Adamawa state, Bala James Ngilari has been sentenced to five years imprisonment by a state High Court without an option of fine.
Ngilari was convicted by Justice Nathan Musa on a four-count charge which bordered on the failure to adhere to the procurement. He was charged on September 21, 2016.
Justice Musa found the former governor guilty of four charges, and discharged him on one, which bordered on conspiracy, just as he also discharged and acquitted former Secretary to the State Government, and the Commissioner of Finance, who were standing trial with the former governor.
According to Justice Musa, the law stipulated that the convict shall not be given an option of fine, saying that the convict is free to serve his term in any prison of his choice.
