OnyxNews Nigeria quotes CNN report stating that a French court on Monday sentenced former President of France, Nicolas Sarkozy to three years in prison for corruption and influence peddling, but suspended two years of the sentence.
The 66-year-old French President from 2007 to 2012, was found guilty of trying to illegally obtain information from a senior magistrate in 2014 about an ongoing investigation into his campaign finances.
