in Abuja, on Thursday, ordered a 30-year-old labourer, Yusuf Muazu, to sweep the court premises for three hours for stealing a bowl of food and a cup of cold water.Mr Muazu pleaded guilty to the charges and begged the court for leniency.
Magistrate Sharon Tanko, in her ruling, said, being hungry does not give the convict the right to commit such offence, thus would be punished for his crime. “You are hereby ordered to pick up all the dirt’s and clean up the premises of Life Camp Magistrate Court for three hours under the supervision of the court registrar,’’ Tanko said.
Earlier, the prosecutor, Peter Ejike, FCT Command, told the court that one Chidibere Lewechi of Life Camp, Abuja, reported the matter at Life camp police station, on July 1.
