Flowing from all the above, I found you Dahiru Umar guilty for the offence of Robbery punishable under Section 287 (1) of the Sokoto State Penal Code Law 2019 as charged. I therefore resolved the sole issue formulated in favour of the prosecution against the defendant. Court: ALLOCUTUS A.F. Hassan Esq: The convict pleads that justice be tempered with mercy being a 1st time offender, a father and a bread winner. We belief if given the minimum sentence, it will serve as a lesson and deter him in the future and will be a useful and better member of the society. We therefore urge the court to sentence him with option of fine in lieu of imprisonment Ibrahim M. Mande Esq: The convict is far as I know is a first time offender and urge the court to sentence him according to law. Page 12 of 14
