On February 1, 2024, Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke of the Federal High Court in Ikoyi, Lagos, sentenced actress Oluwadarasimi Omoseyin to six months in prison for spraying and stepping on new naira notes at a social event in Lagos State.

Omoseyin, initially pleading not guilty to the charges brought by the EFCC on February 13, 2023, changed her plea to guilty during the hearing, acknowledging the evidence against her.

The charges included tampering with N100,000 at a social occasion, violating the Central Bank Act, 2007. The prosecution, led by Z.B. Atiku, presented evidence, including the defendant's statement, forensic reports of her phone, and videos of the incident. The defence, represented by Afuye Adegbola, pleaded for leniency, highlighting Omoseyin's remorse and being a first-time offender.

In delivering the judgment, Justice Aneke sentenced Omoseyin to six months in prison, effective immediately, with an option of a N300,000 fine. ICPC operatives arrested the actress in Ikoyi after a video of her actions at the party, where she also flaunted wads of new naira notes, went viral. She claimed to have received the money from her fans, and a Range Rover was among the items recovered at her arrest.
