A Jos Chief Magistrates’ Court on Thursday
sentenced a 25-year-old man, Abubakar
Mohammed, to one month imprisonment for
impersonating as a member of the National
Youth Service Corps (NYSC).
The Magistrate, Mr Tijanni Zololo handed down
the sentence after Mohammed pleaded guilty to
the crime and begged the court for leniency.
Zololo, however, gave the convict an option of
N100, 000 fine.
He said that the sentence was meant to serve
as a deterrent to those who might want to
engage in similar acts.
The convict in his plea, attributed his action to
the work of the devil, “I don’t know what came
over me; it was the devil that made me do it.
“I wanted to belong, and to be at the same level
with my peers that was why I did it, have mercy
on me,’’ he said.
Mohammed who resides in Mubana Mujaye,
Sokoto State, was charged with impersonation
and forgery.
Earlier, the police prosecutor, Cpl. Samuel
Chirkwap told the court that the accused was
arrested and taken to the police station after
fake NYSC documents were found on him.
He added that forged degree certificate of
Usman Danfodio University, Sokoto was also
found in his possession.
The prosecutor said that the offence
contravened the provisions of Sections 179 and
111 of the Penal Code. (NAN)
