She was jailed 266 years for N8m theft

A female staff of a popular eatery, Oluremi Olayinka, was yesterday convicted and sentenced to 266 years imprisonment by Justice A. A. Akinyemi of Ogun State High Court, Abeokuta, for stealing N8 million belonging to her employer.
The offence is contrary to Sections 390(6)(7)(8), 467 and 468 of the Criminal Code Law Cap 29, Laws of Ogun State.
The court found the convict guilty on all the 34 charges and sentenced her to seven years on each of 30 counts and 14 years on the remaining four charges. The sentences are to run concurrently.

Justice Akinyemi also ordered her to return the money she stole in restitution to her victim.
Olayinka was arraigned before Justice Akinyemi on May 13, 2014, following a petition alleging that she stole N8,000,000, which she received on behalf of her employer.
The convict reportedly admitted to committing the crime initially, only to dramatically plead not guilty upon arraignment.
In the course of trial, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, presented four witnesses and tendered 16 exhibits to prove its case.
