Godwin Uwaezeke was Tuesday arraigned before the Ojo  magistrate court for a one count charge  of stealing. He reportedly  stole a sport motorcycle belonging to one Chijoke where it was parked.

The 29-year-old suspect as gathered, had earlier  been arrested and charged to court for  similar offense. Owner of the motorbike, Chijoke explained that immediately he reported to the police about his stolen motorbike, a friend of his called him on the phone to inform that he saw the missing motorbike with one of their friends Godwin. “ I never gave Godwin my motorbike. it still baffles me how he managed to remove it from where i parked it “, Chijioke told Crime Alert.

When Godwin’s charge  was read to him by the persecutor, Supol Eze,he pleaded not guilty and pleaded for  mercy saying “i will no do it again,it   is the work of the devil. This is my first time of being accused of stealing,i dont know what possessed me.

If  I am free, I promise that i will go and be pushing cart to irk a living.The magistrate Mrs J.O.E  Akhanama who laughed over his plea cautioned him and also  granted him bail of 50,000 and two sureties with 2 years tax payment.
