TWO men, Adamu John, and Shekwoduza Obadia were on Friday sentenced to four months imprisonment each, by a Karmo Grade 1 Area, Court, Abuja, for being in possession of a stolen bunch of banana. The judge, Abubakar Sadiq, sentenced the convicts as they admitted committing the offence. The prosecutor, Dalhatu Zannah, had told the court that one Emoefe Adejome of Efab Estate, Life Camp, Abuja, reported the matter at the Life Camp Police Station on Jan 21. Zannah said that on the same date at about 4: 00 p.m. the convicts dishonestly trespassed into Efab Estate through the fence and were arrested with a bunch of banana. The prosecutor said that the convicts beat up one of the security guard, Bako Isah, attached to the estate as he questioned them about the banana.
