How it started
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission arrested Okuneye in April on six counts of money laundering and Naira mutilation.
He had sprayed money at the premiere of ‘Ajakaju’, a movie by actress and producer, Eniola Ajao, at Film One Circle Mall, in Lekki. At that same event, he was declared the ‘best dressed female’.
During his trial at the Federal High Court in Lagos, Justice Abimbola Awogboro sentenced Okuneye to six months in prison for Naira abuse, without the option of a fine, to serve as a deterrent to others who mutilate the Naira.
Okuneye began his jail term on March 24 and resurfaced in public on August 5.
