Yakubu Sani Esq: You said you recorded the statement of the 1st Defendant which you also translated into English? PW2: Yes, and if I see the statement I can identify it through my handwriting, date 20/12/2018 and my signature. Yakubu Sani Esq: Have a look at the statement and tell the court if it is the statement. PW2: That is the statement. Yakubu Sani Esw: The witness having identified the statement of the 1st Defendant, we seek to tender same in evidence. Abdullateef Akangbe Esq: We have objection in two fold. The first is that the statement was not made voluntarily. The second ground is that the statement sought to be tendered was not signed by the 1st Defendant particularly the Hausa version but we will address the court during our final address. Yakubu Sani Esq: The statement is relevant to the fact in issue and therefore admissible and urge the court to admit same on ground of relevancy. We are changing our position and we apply to withdraw it. Court: The statement been relevant to the fact in issue and the prosecuting counsel having replied to the objection, cannot withdraw it and on grounds of relevancy, same is hereby admitted in evidence and marked as Exhibit ‘E’ and ‘E1’ for Hausa and English translated versions respectively.
