The prison terms run concurrently, and he will, however, serve only 13 years, having been in custody for two years.
The convict is also to make N5.6million (Five Million, Six Hundred Thousand) restitution to his victim, one Bola Akintola, following a plea by the prosecuting counsel Elizabeth Alabi.
The convict had defrauded Akintola of the said sum on the false pretence of having mystical power to deliver her from untimely death.
