Prison Warder bags 10 yrs for selling Cannabis to inmates

Justice Ibrahim Buba of a Federal High Court
Lagos, yesterday, sentenced a 31-year-old
warder, Frank Obi, to 10 years imprisonment,
for drug trafficking.

The judge sentenced the convict, based on his guilty plea to a one-count charge of supplying restricted narcotics to inmates at the Kirikiri maximum prisons, Lagos.

Justice Buba in his judgment, reprimanded the convict for being a shame to lawful
authorities, and accordingly, sentenced him.
"Following the guilty plea entered by the
accused, he is hereby convicted as charged,
and accordingly, sentenced to 10 years
imprisonment, without option of fine" he said.

The judge said that it was indeed very
shameful, that a prison official who knows the values of the prison system, and ought to be a custodian of the law, is now the perpetuator of crime.

He added that the sentence shall take effect
from May 6, when the convict was arrested,
while the convict is to be jailed at the Ikoyi Prisons.
