Popular actress, Funke Akindele, and her husband, Abdul Rasheed Bello, have been sentenced to two-week community service.
The Lagos State Magistrate’s Court, Ogba, where they were tried, also ordered them to go on two-week isolation.
Besides, each of them must pay a N100,000 fine, just as Mrs Aje Afunwa, who pronounced the judgement, ordered them to produce the names and phone numbers of all the people who attended the birthday party that landed them in court.

As defined by experts, Community service is a non-paying job performed by one person or a group of people for the benefit of their community or its institutions.
According to Wikipedia, it is distinct from volunteering, since it is not always performed on a voluntary basis. Although personal benefits may be realised, it may be performed for a variety of reasons including citizenship requirements, a substitution of criminal justice sanctions, requirements of a school or class, and requisites for the receipt of certain benefits.
