Teenager in prison for stealing N13,000 generator

A teenager has been arrested for breaking into a
house and stealing a generator worth N18, 000.
The Police said 18-year-old Olajuwon Kehinde, who
was arraigned before an Ejigbo Magistrate Court
broke into a house on Alimi Street, Arobaba, Idimu,
where he stole the Tiger generator.
“The accused on
the said date and time did break into the house of
Ujiboke and stole one Tiger generator valued at N13,
000.”
Though Olajuwon pleaded not guilty to the crime,
the presiding Magistrate Mrs A.O. Adeyemi ordered
his remand following his inability to meet the N50,
000 bail conditions.
Adeyemi had admitted Olajuwon to bail in the sum
of N50, 000 with a surety who must swear to an
affidavit of means.
However, following the inability of the accused to
meet his bail terms, the court ordered his remand in
prison custody and adjourned the matter till March
1.
Olajuwon is facing a two-count charge of burglary
and stealing.
The offence contravenes Sections 305(B) and 285 (i)
of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State, 2011.
