Minna High Court 4, presided over by Justice Mohammed Adishetu Mohammed, has sentenced Tunde Tayo to life imprisonment and death by hanging in Niger State.

The defendant was found guilty of two counts of armed robbery and culpable homicide, punishable under Section 298 (C) of the Penal Code of Niger State, 1989.

Tayo, of Angwan Roka, Maitumbi in Minna, was arraigned in court by Jude Thaddeus Akaeze, head of the Legal Unit of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligent Department (SCIID) of the Niger State Police Command.

According to the First Information Report: โ€œTunde Tayo of Angwan Roka Maitumbi, Minna, Niger State, on 13th September 2018 at New FM area Minna, within the jurisdiction of this court, did commit robbery; conspired with others at large, while armed with dangerous weapons, lured and robbed one Abdullahi Chali Yahaya (now late) of Angwan Rahama, Bosso Low Cost, of his Bajaj motorcycle, valued at N215,000 and later killed him.โ€

The presiding judge, Justice Mohammed Mohammed, after evaluating the evidence tendered before him, averred that the convict was found guilty of the crimes punishable under Section 298 (C) of the Penal Code and Section 221 of the Penal Code Law of Niger State, punishable with death and life imprisonment, respectively.

Justice Mohammed told the convict: โ€ With the evidence before me, the case of armed robbery and culpable homicide punishable with death has been established against you and you are hereby sentenced to life imprisonment for the case of armed robbery and death by hanging for the case of culpable homicide under Section 221 of the Penal Code.โ€

He added that the sentence would run concurrently, adding, โ€œMay the Lord have mercy on your soul.โ€
