A Zamfara State High Court has sentenced one Anas Dahiru to death by hanging for killing his friend.

Anas of Unguwar Dallatu area of Gusau, in Zamfara State, was accused of killing his friend, Shamsu Ibrahim with a knife during a dispute over one hundred Naira in 2017.

The presiding justice, Mukhtar Yusha’u said that having listened to both sides, the court was convinced that Anas commited the crime.

Justice Yusha’u sentenced the convict to death by hanging as enshrined in section 221 of the Penal Code.

In another development, the presiding judge also sentenced one Sadiqu Abubakar to life imprisonment for attempted armed robbery in Bungudu Local Government Area of the State.

Sadiqu was convicted for attacking one business man in Runji village, who gallantly arrested and handed him over to the police.

He was sentenced to life imprisonment.

Speaking with newsmen at the court premises, the prosecution, Barrister Mansur Lawal, Assistant Director, Public Prosecution, Zamfara State ministry of justice, said he welcomed the judgment passed by the court.

On his part, the counsel to the two convicts, Barrister Muhammad Ahmad Jamo, who is the coordinator, legal aid council, Zamfara State office, said the judgment would serve as deterrent to others.

He, however, disclosed that they would look at the possibility of appealing the case.

This is very saddening. May the deceased soul rest in peace.

I honestly don't want to be tribalistic but there is something about that region. Crime is everywhere but this particular type seems to be peculiar to the region. People in that region can kill for little things like noodles, earphones, ₦50 and et cetera.

Ordinary 100bucks?



I know a region that I'd easily believe would do this with even lesser amount.


Never knew that a Northerner would do this as well....


Betrayal is fast becoming a national thing....

😎😎😎☺️😊


That region will come for me!☺️☺️☺️

All is well

Wrong sentencing. They should make him eat 100 naira notes till he dies of mercury poisoning.

tsdarkside where is your papa?

Chai..



Ordinary Hundred Naira that cannot even buy 1 mudu of garri.

Steady killings here and there!!


Our Northern hemisphere has made us to see death news as normal.

Just after saying you don’t want to go tribal you went ahead to do it.

Same as you saying you don’t want to sound like you don’t have sense and going ahead to drop a senseless comment.


These crimes happen everywhere in the Country and people will kill for the smallest reason as a result of anger, poverty, or heat of the moment. Stop showing us how dumb you are by narrowing these crimes down to one region as if people from were you come from do not steal and kill for drugs, sèx, money and land.


My peace I leave you

You saying you don't want to be tribalistic is a huge lie because you are 100% tribalistic with your statement

You failed to see all the disgusting crimes commited by your region that is disgracing Nigeria at international level.
