The prosecution counsel, Samsuddeen Bashir reviewed the facts of the cases and urged the court to sentence the defendants accordingly.

They all pleaded guilty to the charges filed against them upon their arraignments.

In view of their pleas, prosecution counsel, Mabas Mabur reviewed the facts of the cases and prayed the court to convict and sentence the defendants as charged.

Consequently, Justice Owolabi convicted and sentenced Owoseni to one year imprisonment, Olawuyi to seven months imprisonment, Temidayo to three months jail term, while Michael, Mustapaha, Edobor, Ilori, Basit and Abdullahi bagged six months imprisonment each.
