In view of his plea of ‘guilty’, prosecution counsel, M. T. Iko reviewed the facts of the case. And urged the court to convict and sentence Alobo accordingly.

Justice Obile convicted and sentenced the defendant to two years imprisonment with an option of fine of Fifty Thousand Naira (N50,000.00).


Alobo's journey to the Correctional Centre began when a petitioner alleged that, he was robbed on  December 18, 2020, around Kaduna Street D/Line, Port Harcourt, River State and lost his phone; a laptop,  wallet containing his ATM cards, and some other documents in the process.
