Justice Ayokunle Faji of a Federal High Court in Lagos State has convicted and sentenced a woman, Bilikisu Lawal, who claimed to be battling the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, to one-year imprisonment.

The judge handed down the verdict to Lawal while delivering judgment on a charge of unauthorised dealing in five kilograms of cannabis sativa, aka marijuana.

The convict was charged before the court by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency on one count of unauthorised dealing in cannabis sativa.

During the convict’s arraignment, the prosecutor, Femi Adebayo, told the court that she was arrested with the weed on November 2, 2022, at her house at Odofin, Ebute Onijegi Iworo, Badagry, Lagos State.

According to the prosecutor, the offence contravenes Section 11(c) of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency Act Cap. N30, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, and is punishable under the same Act.

The convict pleaded guilty to the charge.

Following her guilty plea, the prosecutor urged the court to sentence her in accordance with the law.

But the convict, in her plea for leniency, informed the court that she was an HIV patient, who did not have anyone to take care of her.

She said she used the proceeds of the Indian hemp to take care of herself, children and aged mother.

The judge then requested medical proof of her claim, which she presented. Justice Faji, in her judgement on Friday, sentenced the convict to one-year imprisonment, saying her illness was not the type that could not be taken care of by the Nigerian Correctional Services.

The judge ordered the NCoS officials to ensure that the convict was given adequate medical treatment in custody.

The one-count charge against the convict read,

“That you, Bilikisu Lawal, female, adult, Nigerian, of Odofin, Ebute Onijegi Iworo, Badagry, Lagos State, on or about November 2, 2022, at Odofin, Ebute Onijegi Iworo, in the Badagry area of Lagos State, within the jurisdiction of this honourable court, without lawful authority, dealt in 5.0 kg of marijuana, otherwise known as cannabis sativa, a narcotic drug similar to cocaine, heroin, LSD, by which act you committed an offence contrary to and punishable under Section 11(c) of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency Act Cap. N30, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria.”

Eyah, what a pity! This is a further proof of the wild spread of HIV as reported at the FMOH during my visit in September. The head of Lab was lamenting, that they needed help, that the reports coming to them from the various hospitals nationwide are scary, with the high level of hiv spread. She said if not checked, could snowball into another pandemic in Nigeria, 1 out of 50 people walking on the street in Nigeria is living with the virus according to her. I also shared the story of one girl who had sex with a Nigerian who came home from Philippines in May. She didn't have any bf prior to the guys visit. She got introduced to the guy by her sister. Now, she's battling hiv.

If you mist barb or trim your beards and you don't have a clipper, ensure proper sanitation of the clipper befirr use. Let the barber light up the mouth of the clipper with fire. E get as dem dey do am. Don't allow any barber use hairbrush on you. Go with your own brush, e no pass 100 naira. Be careful.

He/she who has the ear let him/her hear.
