In view of all the foregoing, it is the humble view of this court
that the prosecution has proved all the elements of the offence
as required by law.
Consequently the prosecution having proved all the elements
of the offence, has accordingly proved same beyond
reasonable doubt.

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.
