Umanah was convicted and sentenced by Justice Agatha Okeke of the Federal High Court sitting in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, on Tuesday, March 8, 2022.

Umanah’s nightmare started in 2020 when he was arrested by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, following a petition by one of his victims, who alleged that Umanah swindled him of over N2.9 million (Two Million, Nine Hundred Thousand Naira) and subsequently issued him an N500,000. 00 (Five hundred thousand Naira) cheque, which was dishonoured by the bank because the account was not funded.

During the investigation, the EFCC discovered that the defendant lured his victims through bogus promises of return on investment of up to 50% in seven days through his company, No Burn Global Limited, with a network in several states of the federation.

His conviction was secured by the Uyo Zonal Command of the EFCC.
