Why T Dollar, TobiNation Were Sentenced by EFCC
Nigerian entertainers T Dollar and TobiNation have been sentenced to six months in prison for violating the law against Naira mutilation. The judgment was delivered on Thursday, May 8, 2025, by the Lagos Zonal Directorate of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), following their guilty plea.
The ruling, delivered by Justice Owoeye at the Federal High Court in Ikoyi, includes an option for each of the convicts to pay a N200,000 fine instead of serving jail time.
This latest development adds to a growing list of Nigerian celebrities facing similar charges. Notably, singer Portable, actress Iyabo Ojo, and comedian AY Makun have all found themselves entangled in EFCC-related issues over their handling of the Nigerian currency.
The EFCC continues to clamp down on currency abuse, warning that mutilating, spraying, or mishandling the Naira is a criminal offense, regardless of one’s status or celebrity.
