Kehinde Olajide, a 22-year-old unemployed man, has been sentenced to death by hanging for armed robbery in Ekiti State.

A High Court sitting in Ado Ekiti on Thursday sentenced Kehinde for involvement in robberies.

He was docked for arming himself with dangerous weapons to rob Dayo Folorunsho, Saka Yusuf, Adeoye Oluwatosin, Adeola Oluwatobi, Olayemi Aremu, Hambali Ojo and Ayodele Oluwafemi of their belongings.




Justice Lekan Ogunmoye who pronounced the judgement, said that “the prosecution had proved ingredients of armed robbery against the convict without any reasonable doubt”.

Ogunmoye said, “He is hereby sentenced to death by hanging until he is dead. May God almighty have mercy upon his soul”.

Terrible times with grievous sentence lashing out to the prosecuted person. Where are the appeal court,

he was armed and it was robbery, and under the constitution its not a death warranty nor a federal prejudice and should be remanded in a correctional facility for 20years or more-so not the death penalty.

Robbering death sentence I am not against it though.. But what's the punishment to our politicians embezzling billions and millions out there that are moving freely without being prosecuted.. I think he deserves what he got cos these people are always brutal with their victims.

It’s a news filled with lies upon lies

What a judgement for robbery without any loss of lives

Gone are the days when Nigerian Correctional Service used to have officers who execute inmates on death roll.

I pray such won't be our portion.
