A man in Adamawa State, Abdullahi Yakubu, has been convicted and sentenced to three years imprisonment for parading himself as a Police Inspector and exacting his false authority on people.

The man who became known by unwary members of the public as Inspector Ibrahim was handed a 3-year prison term for the offence of impersonation.

The sentence, however, came with N100,000 option of fine.
