An Abeokuta Magistrates’ Court on Friday sentenced a 52-year-old man, Usman Abdullahi, to three months Community Service for stealing two Infinix phones.
Abdullahi, whose address was not provided, was sentenced on a one count charge of stealing.
The Magistrate, Mr Dehinde Dipeolu, sentenced Abdullahi after he pleaded guilty of the charge of stealing, and begged the court to have mercy on him, saying he would not steal again.
Dipeolu, however, sentenced the defendant to three months community service, and also ordered that the community service would be done at the Adigbe police station and to be supervised by the Ibara correctional service centre.
