The Federal High Court sitting in Lagos on Friday sentenced one Igboezue Emeka to one month imprisonment for money laundering.
Justice Alexander Owoeye also ordered the forfeiture of $40,000 to the Federal Government of Nigeria.
Emeka was arrested on February 12, 2025, at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport by officers of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) for failing to declare the sum of $40,000 in his possession.
