The convicts are Dauda Abdulsemiu Opeyemi and Adeite John Olaniyi.
The presiding Justice Ibrahim Watilat found them guilty of fraudulent impersonation in a one-count amended charge filed against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibadan zonal office.
In line with the content of the plea bargain agreements reached with the Commission, the duo had pleaded guilty to the amended charge.
