NIGERIA: COURT SENTENCES MINOR TO DEATH IN KOGI

May 8, 2017:

A Kogi State High Court sitting in Lokoja sentenced a 15-year-old cattle rearer,  Haruna Usman, to death for culpable homicide.
He was found guilty of stabbing one Happy David following an argument.
Usman, a Fulani, was facing a one-count of culpable homicide punishable with death under Section 221 of the Penal Code.
The offence was said to have been committed on the 28th  July 2015 at Emiworo village in Ajaokuta Local Government Area of Kogi State.
To prove its case against the accused, the prosecution called six witnesses and tendered six exhibits.
The accused on the other hand gave evidence for himself and called only two witnesses.
While delivering his judgment, the Chief Judge of Kogi State, Justice Nasiru Ajanah, found him guilty of the offense punishable with death under section 221 of the penal code.
Usman, who was about 15 years old when he committed the offense on July 28, 2015, was said to have stabbed David to death while trying to graze on the deceased’s parents’ farm.
