-The Court Breached Nasarawa State Law – Female Lawyer


An Abuja Assistant Superintendent of Police, Prince Akhindenor has charged a young girl, Miss Gloria Benjamin, to the Chief Magistrate Court “Upper” of Nasarawa State at Ado New Karu Nasarawa State, Near Abuja for refusing to agree to his proposal to marry her.

In what seems like a connivance with the Magistrate Court officials, ASP Akhindenor filed a direct Criminal Complaint against the young girl who is a POS Operator for refusing to marry him and accused the girl of Fraud, Cheating, Criminal Breach of trust and Criminal Intimidation.


According to the Court documents obtained by Lawblogng.com, the complaint was filed on the 16th of November 2023 by the Assistant Inspector of Police. In the Complaint, the ASP stated that he lent Miss Benjamin some money in the hope that she will marry him. He also stated that he bought her a piece of furniture and a sewing machine in his attempt to convince her to marry him. The ASP also claimed that Miss Benjamin insulted her when he requested his gifts and money back leaving him no choice but to charge the young girl to court.


DEFENDANT ARRESTED BY COURT OFFICIALS, ARRAIGNED IN MAGISTRATE’S OFFICE WITHOUT A LAWYER AND FORCED TO PAY BAIL OF N 125,000.00 IN CASH.

Narrating her ordeal to Lawblogng.com in tears, the defendant Miss Gloria Benjamin told Lawblogng.com that she was in her Shop on Thursday 16th of November 2023 near Muhamadu Buhari International Market Nasarawa, when court officials came with a police officer and a lawyer, Barrister Titus Ekpo to arrest her. They informed her that the court has summoned her immediately and she must follow them to court.


According to her, she pleaded with them to allow her call her relations to notify them of her whereabouts but they refused and insisted that she must follow them immediately to court. According to her, when they arrived at the court, they informed her that she is standing trial for crimes she committed against ASP Akhindenor and gave her a copy of the charge.

She tried to explain to them that she did not do anything wrong to the ASP but nobody listened to her. When she requested that they allow her to get a lawyer to help her, they informed her that she can only get a lawyer in the court premises. According to Miss Benjamin, the only Lawyer in court at that time was Barrister Titus Ekpo who was representing the complainant, ASP Akhindenor.

The Registrar of the Court, Mr Ahmed Doma and the Clerk, Mr Ishaku Tanko advised her to beg Barrister Ekpo for help and she did. Barrister Ekpo promised to help her even though he was the one that brought the Charge against her.


According to Miss Benjamin, even though the complainant was not around, the court officials took her to the office of the Magistrate who asked her if she is guilty of the Charges but she answered “not guilty”. The Magistrate told her that he has granted her One million Naira bail but if she cannot meet up with the bail, she will be taken to Keffi Prison.

The traumatized Miss Benjamin revealed that when the court officials brought her out of the Magistrate’s office, the Court Registrar asked her to provide the One million Naira cash for Bail but She informed the Registrar that she has no way of raising such money. The Registrar told her that he will help her if she can bring N750,000 in cash but she could not bring the money.


The Registrar later reduced the money to N500,000 and then to N300,000 and Miss Benjamin couldn’t still provide the money. The court officials informed her that she should prepare for Prison since she is not serious.


According to a female Lawyer, the arrest and trial of Miss Benjamin on the same day the complaint was filed in court is against section 117 of the Nasarawa State Law for the Administration of Criminal Justice 2019 which stipulated that a proper summons containing the exact charges against a Defendant Must be served on the Defendant and two days minimum be given to the Defendant to answer the Charges.

Which kind of wickedness is this? These court people will not die well o

The ASP of Police took advantage of her, knowing fully well that she is not that educated.

Good. The chop and clean mouth era is coming to an end. I hope they start sueing the school sponsorship category too.

It's now official that Nigeria is a zoo

This is the girl's side of the story. The side of the story to raise public sympathy. On a normal, I don't trust policemen but if we are to get the truth of this matter we'll raise it's all a plot to paint the man as the villain because the real terror is female.
Sister, what do you think will happen when you're accepting gifts up and down? Return those things ASAP for a man's heart is where his treasures or properties are

Hope the NJC would see this one.

They are busy with election Appeals business. NJC is too busy now

Someone should advice this girl to go to Brekete. What kind of injustice is this?

Op this is not a blackmail. The girl is a crook. She should refund his 700k. EOD!

Some ladies don't know most of the things they do to swindle money from men is a romance scam and is punishable offence under the law.

You can't approbate and reprobate at the same time, if you don't want marriage don't swindle people's under a false pretense.

The matter is in court let the court decides.

Inukwa ooooo

The ASP and his Lawyer and the Court Officials and Magistrate are all crooks and law breakers. If the ASP has a case of gifting a lady money and items on the promise of marriage, it is not a criminal case but civil. An agreement to marry is a civil matter. The reason they went about it coercing the defendant for cash for bail while attempting to criminalise a purely civil matter is in itself criminal.

Not just "becoming," it is has already become a banana 🍌 Republic since 2015

If the said pos girl knowingly knows that she will not marry the police officer and still continue to eat his money, our money that the police collect from bribe, then I see nothing wrong taking the girl to court, at least the officer is seeking for the matter to be settle in a legal way.
