Court Sentences Two Men To Death For Stealing Fowls! by wesley80(m): 11:56am On Dec 18, 2014 |
OSOGBO—Justice Jide Falola of an Osun State High Court sitting in Okuku has sentenced two robbers to death for stealing fowls. The convicts, Olowookere Segun and Morakinyo Sunday, were found guilty of forcefully breaking into the house of one Mr. Balogun Tope, a police officer attached to Divisional Police headquarters, Okuku, in April 2010 and carting away some of his belongings. The convicts were charged with conspiracy, robbery and stealing contrary to Section 6(b) and 1(2)(a) of Robbery and Firearm (Special Provisions) Act, cap R 11 Laws of Federation of Nigeria 2004 and Section (390)(1) Criminal Code Law, Cap 34, Laws of Osun State, 2002. The prosecution team, led by the state Solicitor-General, Mrs Abiola Adewemimo, called six witnesses and tendered several exhibits during the prosecution. The prosecution told the court that on November 13, 2010, men were sighted around Balogun’s home armed with cutlass and a dane gun, and that while two of them were arrested, others escaped. The convicts were said to have confessed that they stole the complainant’s fowls, adding that they had been in his house before to steal. Adewemimo said: “They also stated that they had earlier robbed Alhaja Umani Oyewo in her house and stole broilers, eggs and kegs of vegetable oil from the house.” In his judgment, Justice Falola convicted them on only three counts: to death for conspiracy; life sentence for robbery, and three years imprisonment for stealing. Justice Falola recommended that the governor can decide to commute the death sentence to 10 years imprisonment, considering the convicts’ ages. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/12/2-sentenced-death-stealing-fowls-osun/ |

Fowl?? What about those that stole millions? People steal Our Oil money on daily basis yet walk freely on d street... Is the law meant for the poor alone This injustice is because they stole from a police officer who is worst than the two victims ...All these police officers that kill innocent citizens, bury them in a shallow grave,how many of them has been jailed or sentenced to death? This Judge deserve death by hanging with his balls We only read the story of recovering millions from our politicians,how billions of naira got missing in some government offices but none was sentenced to death. Wonders will never cease Don't steal,Government hates Competition 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Defendant: ''My lord....the drop of mercy....it runneth....'' Judge: ''Enough of that hackneyed quotation from Shakespeare....'' (Above loosely paraphrased from the play ''The incorruptible Judge'' by D.Olu Olagoke) The defendant was standing trial for taking a bribe of five Nigerian Pounds.....(set in the 1960's BTW). 2 Likes |
