They were sentenced for armed robbery. Forget about the sensational headline, armed robbery will get you a death sentence for obvious reasons. Anyone that confronts you with arms can "mistakenly" kill you too... though the judge would have been more lenient. Make them appeal the judgement





It seems like they never had proper legal representation with the report they never called any witnesses.
their legal team did little to defend them of the charges of Armed Robbery proffered against them so the Judge had no choice.

And so? Did they take life in the act? I'm neither a lawyer nor supporting crime. Most of our judges in Nigeria are disgrace to judiciary. Be honest to yourself

Based on "technicalities" and the law, the judge probably didn't do anything wrong. From what we read they stole from students not from some big man. So the chances that the case was manipulated is slim or nonexistent. Maybe they didn't have good representation at the trial. If I were the judge I probably would have been more lenient.

Anything armed robbery attracts the death by hanging. That’s why under the Criminal law, stealing/robbery is different from the offense of armed robbery.

Our judiciary lack conscience. You try our politicians by another law and give them 6 months for looting billions and try the common man by a law that sentences them to death for stealing a phone.

What they did was armed robbery with a deadly weapon, not just stealing a phone.
Whether or not the punishment is appropriate is another matter.
Re: 3 Sentenced To Death For Stealing Phones Chargers, Sandals, Power Banks In Ekiti by RaptorX: 2:41pm On May 16, 2023
Politicians that steal billions without confronting the masses directly with a gun or knife, are more deadly than this armed robbers and cause more deaths and injuries overall than this petty thieves sentenced to death.

Someone steals 2k brandishing a gun=death sentence.

Another steals billions with a pen = few years behind bars.

Scenario one is mainly done by poor people without knowing the consequences of their actions while scenario two is mostly done by rich people.

Do the crime do the jail time.

Everyone should stay out of crime.

Brother the law is very clear, anywhere in the world where there is a Death sentence, once you are armed with anything that could kill someone and you go and rob, you are liable to receive a death sentence cos the cutlas would be used if something goes wrong or the thieves feel threatened.

According to the judgement that reads

"I am of the strong opinion that the prosecution has proved beyond reasonable doubt the offence of armed robbery against the defendants."

So it is a case of Army Robbery.

That is what most here fail to realise.
The law does not evaluate what was stolen but the act of the offence which was robbery by the force of arms which is a capital crime in Nigeria.
And as a society we decided that this is a capital crime because in the course of the act lives are often lost.

Is that what I said? Why were you trying to playdown the gravity of the offense by saying they stole a phone?
No, it was armed robbery. But like I said earlier, whether or not the death sentence is appropriate is another matter.
Not a few Nigerians have died in the hands of armed robbers. So, it's a serious crime.
