However, when the matter came up on Friday, the convict pleaded guilty to all the five count charges.
In view of his new plea, prosecution counsel Musa Isah urged the court to convict him accordingly.
Justice Mahmoud convicted the defendant according to his plea. In his judgment, the judge said: “The accused person is hereby convicted to the charge he pleaded guilty to”.
However, before sentence was passed, defence counsel, Modube Speine pleaded with the court to tamper justice with mercy .
Consequently, the convict was sentenced to one (1) year imprisonment or pay fine of Four Hundred Thousand Naira (N400,000) only.
Apart from his conviction, Nuhu is also standing trial in another matter, which has since been concluded and awaiting judgment before Justice Yusuf Ubale of the Kano State High Court.
