 How Kaduna Court Sentenced Man To 8 Strokes Of Cane For Stealing Goat


A Kaduna Chief Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, convicted a 21-year-old scavenger, Ibrahim Usman, to eight strokes of the cane as punishment for stealing a she-goat.

He said the convict confessed that he stole the goat from his neighbour’s house when he was taken to the Police station for questioning and that the offence contravened the Penal Code of Kaduna State, 2017.


Magistrate, Ibrahim Emmanuel, while issuing the verdict explained that the court was merciful with the defendant because he did not waste time in admitting his guilt.
