Hey there, middle schoolers! So, there’s some news about a guy named George Turnah, who used to be a Special Adviser to Dan Abia. He and two other people, Ebis Orubebe and Uzorgor Chidebere, have been sent to jail for six years. Why? Well, they did some bad stuff like pretending to have money and doing illegal things with it.

These three guys were charged with a bunch of crimes like money laundering, conversion of funds, and forgery. That means they were moving money around in sneaky ways, changing it into different forms, and even making fake documents. All of this is against the law!

The trial started back in May 2017 when the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) first brought charges against them. Then, in January 2021, they were brought to court again and faced 23 counts of crimes. The judge, Justice A. T. Mohammed, listened to all the evidence and decided that they were guilty.

Now, let’s talk about the punishment. George Turnah, Ebis Orubebe, and Uzorgor Chidebere have been sentenced to six years in prison. That’s a long time! They have to pay for what they did and learn their lesson.

So, that’s the story of George Turnah and his friends. They thought they could get away with their crimes, but justice caught up with them. Remember, it’s important to always do the right thing and never try to cheat or deceive others. Crime doesn’t pay!
