Man in prison
By Shade Damiro
A Grade A Customary Court sitting at Mapo in Ibadan has sentenced a 26-year-old man, Awalu Garba, to five months imprisonment for stealing dried catfish valued at N22,000.
Garba had pleaded guilty to a one-count charge of stealing levelled against him.
The court’s president, Mrs O.E. Owoseni found him guilty as charged.
According to Owoseni, a plea of guilt remains the best form of evidence, since nobody would confess to what they did not do, and no further proof was required by the court.
