Spot on bro!

What amazes me is how people are quick to condemn the judge without giving room for critical thinking.

These guys maim and kill the innocent, you'll see them in court seeking for mercy and one can easily fall for their sober looks, not knowing the level of atrocities they've once committed.

Wasted country. The real thieves are walking majestically on the street. Dunno what robbery have gotten to do with capital punishment

From the replies I am seeing here, it is obvious most Nigerians read only headlines, quickly form very uninformed opinions and immediately post them on social media.

This is a criminal that stabbed an innocent man who wanted to help him, stole his property and left him to bleed to death.

The police did their job admirably, caught him and took him to court. The judiciary did their job by giving him fair hearing and appropriately finding him guilty. The criminal was sentenced to death by hanging in line with the constitution of the country.

From now henceforth anyone that posts trash on this thread should be charged with obstruction of justice.

Last week, a 23-year-old boy identified as Tope Abiodun, was sentenced to death by hanging by a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) for stealing an android LG phone valued at N87, 000. A concerned Nigerian man has appealed to authorities to consider the plight of the young man due to various reasons he shared below;

Justice Chizoba Orji of Apo high court FCT Abuja jailed 23 yrs old Tope Abiodun (from Kabba Kogi state)to death by hanging for stealing an android LG phone valued at #87,000 naira ....this happened few weeks ago in a country where those that Looted billions that were meant to make life easy for such Youths from being tempted to survive through stealing are out there roaming the streets in freedom .

This is unfair to the poor and vulnerable masses ,Tope fluently speaks yoruba ,igbo and Hausa languages ,he has transformed since he was imprisoned four yrs ago,this is a lad that will assist visitors with their luggage down to cells of those they came to visit in kuje prison.

He is a good boy we can not allow to die . I am appealing to well meaning nigerians ,clergies alike to come to his aide ,he has an ageing mother ,he was not born to see his father alive ,one can easily understand his upbringing .

Tope Abiodun committed this crime when he was 18yrs old ,he told me ,the pressure to feed with his younger siblings pushed him to do it .
Probably he did that as an ignorant young boy out of the normal juvenile delinquency stage in our lives .

Godbless you as you do to help him process his case through the appeal court ,I am so sad about this because I have spent much to help this boy eventhough I have my issues at the end the judge gave him a very harsh sentence (death by hanging )in a case no death was recorded .

Wake up ,Good Nigerians!
#HelpTope
May this also teach our young stars a lesson ! #pls share this as a way to assist him

Nothing will happen to him. God has intervened

pelumi111:
hmmmm wat a useless country yet ppl steal billions ppl commit crime dat is unthinkable yet the maximum jail sentence dey get is 5yrs.....whr re we heading to in this country??

seunlayi:
this country is dammed, why that harsh judgement while others are busy looting millions and billions. The boy should not serve more than 3 months in jail and should be given something to start life with after release

miccollo47:
If na even robbery we go say na big deal... Stealing!!! Smh that judge is supposed to be sentenced to death by firing.

Fairgodwin:

Don't mind the poster and the supposed journalist who reports the story. He distorted the information just to paint the judge and judiciary bad and garner undeserved sympathy from the masses, especially those who are not current with happenings around them or within the country. The boy in question, in company of another, deceived the victim [that] there was an emergency and they needed to quickly make use of his phone to call someone, only for them to stab him in the head (after the innocent man had innocently handed them the phone) and run away with his phone even as they left him in the pool of his own blood. It was God and some good samaritans that later rescued him from the grip of death.
You know sometimes it's actually good to discern things before commenting. Even if Nigeria were such a terrible country, would a judge, even a mad one, just sentence someone to death for 'stealing a phone?'
Most Nigerians are too lazy to read or do research and look beyond mere sentiments.
