However, counsel to the defendant pleaded with the court to temper justice with mercy stressing the defendant was a first- time offender.

  

Justice Yakubu, having listened to both counsels, convicted and sentenced the defendant to twelve months imprisonment.

 

Mohammed's journey to prison began when a petitioner alleged that he obtained the sum of N4,800,000 from him for a landed property. He neither delivered the property to the petitioner nor returned the money to him.
