The police in Kubwa have dragged a 29-year-old security guard before an Abuja Grade 1 Area Court over the theft of 2,200 fowls valued at N2,220,500 from a poultry farm at Kubwa, a satellite town of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

David Buba of Arab Road, Kubwa, was charged with theft, an offence that contradicts Section 387 of the Penal Code.
The police prosecutor, Lukas Ephraim, told the court that one Ajonye Amina of Navy Quarters, Phase 4, Kubwa, on July 23, reported at the police station, how the accused, between May and June, acted in a dubious manner and stole the said number of fowl.
When the charges were read to the accused, he pleaded not guilty and was granted bail in the sum of N2, 000, 000 by Judge Mohammed Marafa, with two reasonable sureties, one of who must be a civil servant of not less than level 6 and resident within the court’s jurisdiction.
The case was adjourned to September 7, 2015.
Similarly, a 21-year-old man was sentenced to one year imprisonment by the same court for stealing a motorcycle in the same area.
Dauda Bala of Dei-Dei was convicted for theft, offence contrary to Section 287 of the Penal Code.
The police prosecutor, Yakubu Enang, told the court that one Babatunde Abegunda of Dutse Makaranta, on June 24, complained at the Dutsen- Alhaji police station that the accused criminally stormed his house, forced the padlock open and stole his ZS 110-60 Champion motorcycle worth N115, 000.
He said the accused was arrested while trying to push it away with the aid of a motorcyclist, now at large, adding that during investigation, he confessed to have stolen several motorcycles from different places in Abuja.
When the charges were read to the accused, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to one year imprisonment by Judge Mohammed Marafa, with an option of N30, 000 fine.
