Comedian D General convicted of drug trafficking
Justice Daniel Osiagor of a Federal High Court in Lagos, on Monday, convicted a social media Comedian, Joshua Sunday also known as “D General” of drug trafficking.
The defendant, also a social media influencer, was dragged to court by the National Dr*g Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), alongside Caleb William, a cinematographer.
Delivering judgment, Justice Osiagor held that the volume of substance was minimal and would rather convict the defendants and caution them, rather than sentence them.
The court, consequently, convicted the defendants and cautioned them to “go and sin no more.”
Both defendants, 22, were charged with three counts of trafficking Tramadol and Cannabis Sativa.
They both pleaded guilty to the charge.
After their pleas, the prosecutor, Mr Jeremiah Aernan, reviewed the facts of the case and tendered evidences before the court, through an NDLEA exhibit keeper, Mr Lucky Oghaifu.
