A division of the High Court of Justice of Kogi State sitting in Lokoja, has sentenced a man, Muritala Dare, to death by hanging for stabbing his colleague to death with a broken bottle.

The charge stated that he “caused the death of one Lukman Karim by doing an act to wit, stabbing him in the neck and hand with a broken bottle with the intention of causing his death, thereby committing an offence.” Upon examination of the evidence presented before the court and particularly relying on the confessional statement by the defendant, Justice Majebi averred that “a confession is an admission at any time by a person charged with a crime stating or suggesting that he committed the crime.”
