Popular investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has claimed that social media big boy, Ramos Abbas Igbalode also known as Hushpuppi has been sentenced to prison.
Although the United States District Court hasn’t confirmed his sentence for the Central District of California which had slated the sentence for 3rd November, Kemi has however given an update.
The controversial journalist, took to twitter to announce Hushpuppi was sentenced to 11 years imprisonment in a federal prison in the United States.
In her words;
”UPDATE Just like I predicted 10-15yrs, Hushpuppi is sentenced to 11 yrs in US federal prison. He will spend 9 yrs less the two years spent. Once released he will be deported to Nigeria or file asylum in 🇺🇸 as he claims DCP Kyari will harm him and his family.”
In related news, Hushpuppy’s verified Instagram account with 2.8 million followers has been deactivated amidst his ongoing trial in the United States.
Recall that the famous yahoo boy was extradited from Dubai in 2020 and his trial had since been postponed for the final hearing more than twice.
The sentencing was initially moved by Judge Wright from February 14 to July 11, 2022, before shifting it to September 21 and now November 7.
In a recent development, the 2.8 million followers page of Hushpuppi has, however, disappeared from the image-sharing platform.
It’s uncertain if this was officially taken down by Instagram or if the page is temporarily disabled by someone with access to the page.
