Today, a 27-year-old man, Sunday Vincent, was
sentenced to three weeks imprisonment by an
Abuja court for public nuisance.
Vanguard newspaper reports that the convict, of
no fixed address, was arrested by the police
patrol team attached to Ademola Adetokunbo
street, Wuse two, Abuja, and taken to Kado
Police Station Abuja, on Jan. 1.
He was convicted for wandering around the
streets and gave no satisfactory explanation on
what he was doing.
The judge, Alhaji Abubakar Sadiq, however, gave
Vincent an option to pay N3,000 fine and
warned him to desist from committing any
crimes.
The offence is punishable under Section 198 of
the Penal Code.
