Under cross-examination, he answered that the paid money for a job and a letter was
given. He said he also paid 1st Defendant in cash. He does not have the letters. That
he paid into Abdulai Seidu’s account otherwise, he would not have been given
appointment letters. That he is employ by Civil Defence which the paid money to.
That he does not know his Service Number since his employment letter is not with
him. That he was old it is only when he is preparing for his ID Card that he can be
given. That he was employed last year by Ibrahim. That the letter was given to him
at Gwagwalada. That 1st Defendant called him to his house and gave him the letter.
That he is yet to resume work. That he is Level 7 Assistant Superintendent. He does
not know the ranks. That he is a new officer posted to Mariga. That he has not been
going to work. To another question, he answered that it is true that he has been
duped. That he knows the 1st Defendant very well. That he also knows the 2nd
Defendant but not very well. He does not know whether he is a staff or not but he
looks at himself as an officer. That he has been posted. The above is the case of the
Defence.
The Prosecution’s Final Written Address is dated 01/11/16 but filed on the 08/11/16.
The Prosecution adopted the said Final Written Address as her oral argument. She
posited one issue for determination:
1.
Whether based on the evidence before the Court, the Prosecution has
proved its case beyond reasonable doubt.
The Defendants’ Counsel also filed his final Written Address dated 18/10/16
which Learned Counsel adopted as his oral argument. The Learned Counsel to the
Defendants’ lone issue is adopted by the Prosecution in its Written Address.
The issue for determination in my humble view therefore is whether the
Prosecution has proved the guilt of Defendant beyond reasonable doubt.
