The controversial figure, who gained fame for his flamboyant lifestyle and social media presence, is seeking to overturn the verdict that landed him a six-month jail term.
As reported by Sahara Reporters, Bobrisky’s appeal, filed by his lawyer, Bimbo Kusanu, urged the Court of Appeal to set aside the sentence imposed by the Federal High Court in Lagos.
Instead, Bobrisky is requesting that the court replace the imprisonment with a monetary fine of N50,000 for each of the four counts against him.
The case stems from allegations of Naira abuse, which refers to the misuse or defacement of Nigeria’s currency, a violation of the country’s laws.
Consequently, the Federal High Court in Lagos found Bobrisky guilty on all four counts and sentenced him to six months behind bars.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>
