Aliyu was arraigned on  November 17,  2020 on 36-count charges  bordering on criminal breach of trust, forgery and using as genuine a forged document.   He pleaded not guilty to the charges when read to him. However, the 36 charges were  amended to one -count charge on May 17,  2022 and he pleaded guilty to it.

The one-count charge read: “That you, Ibrahim Aliyu, between December 2016 and June 2018 in Yola, Adamawa State within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court dishonestly converted to your personal use the gross sum of N10,949,500.00 (Ten Million Nine Hundred  and Forty Nine Thousand, Five Hundred Naira), property of Yola Electricity Distribution Company (YEDC)
In view of his plea,  prosecution counsel, Mubarak Tijani,  prayed  the court to convict the defendant accordingly.

Justice Musa found Aliyu guilty and sentenced him to seven years imprisonment with an option of fine of N300,000( Three Hundred Thousand Naira ).
Aliyu’s journey to the Correctional Centre started in  2016 when he was arrested for defrauding the Yola Electricity Distribution company the sum of  N10,949,500.00 (Ten Million,  Nine Hundred  and Forty Nine Thousand, Five Hundred Naira).  While working as a cashier with the company, he forged payment reports and converted the company’s money to his personal use.
