The Judge stated that “the offence is contrary to sections 390 (6) (7) (8), 467 and 468 respectively of the Criminal Code Law Cap 29,” Laws of Ogun State.
According to the statement, “she was sentenced to seven years on each of 30 counts and 14 years on the remaining four charges. The sentences are to run concurrently”.

Olayinka was charged before Justice Akinyemi on May 13, 2014 following a petition, alleging that she stole the sum of ₦8 million which she received on behalf of her employer.
