Lagos Judge Sentenced Male Hairdresser To Death By Hanging For Stealing laptop And Phone

A 25-year-old male hairdresser, Izuma Ajaere was sentenced to death by an Ikeja High Court, in Lagos on Wednesday for stealing a laptop and a mobile phone at gunpoint.



Justice Kudirat Jose found the convict Izuma Ajaere guilty as charged and ordered that he should be hung by the neck until he dies.

Jose in her judgment noted that the evidence of Mr Uchenna Ukah, the victim of the crime was pivotal in convicting Ajaere. She said, “The prosecution has proved the charge of conspiracy to commit armed robbery and armed robbery beyond a reasonable doubt.


She added, “The defendant is hereby sentenced to death for conspiracy to commit armed robbery and sentenced to death for armed robbery.


“He is to be hanged by the neck till he is dead, may the Lord have mercy on his soul,” the Judge said.

    2. Armed robbery carries the death penalty under Nigerian laws. The object stolen is not of essence

  8. It was ARMED robbery.. The truth is that if the victim resisted,he could have shot him or her.


    (a)any offender mentioned in subsection (1) of this section is armed with any firearms or any offensive weapon or any obnoxious or chemical materials or is in company with any person so armed; or

    (b)at or immediately before or immediately after the time of robbery, the said offender wounds any person, the offender shall upon conviction be sentenced to death.

    He can appeal.

    1. He's still not on trial for murder but for robbery. There's no justification whatsoever for this

  9. What kind of humans do we have these days?! Yes, the guy was probably notorious. Yes, there's a chance he could have killed with the gun, but most importantly, he DID NOT! and u one man bcos u went to school and read a couple of books can sentence a man's life out of this world? How are u different from a man that held a gun to steal a laptop?!
    Please let this guy serve his time, be properly rehabilitated and back to his loved ones biko! This is my definition of Hian,Hianer, Hianest!

    1. And dem sentimental sdkers forget to realize that whether he was found with a gun or not, he didn't use it. If and only when u can prove that he has killed in the past can this be justifiable

  10. That judge is mad and may all her children die by accident. Stealing is so wrong but for her to kill just for this, may death visit her.

  16. If you've ever been robbed then you will believe me if I say no robber deserve sympathy at all. Secondly I want to believe the judge couldn't have acted outside the ambits of the law.

  17. Wozaa! This is too much. He should have been sentenced to prison stead. What judgment would the judge pass to our politicians stealing. Billions of money

  19. The sentence for armed robbery is death. Whether the accused person robbed armed with knife or gun, whether he stole N1 or N1million, it's the same sentence the court would pronounce. Its the law.

  20. I read this over and over again looking for another crime he committed that justifies his conviction, but couldn't see any.......

  24. Why are you guys getting annoyed with the judge's judgement. May be you people have not experienced thieves before. When you experience, come and tell us the stories.

    when the one that broke my windscreen last year did that. All that came to my mind was why do we not allow citizens to carry guns? i would have shot him to death if i had a gun.

    Next time in the next world if there is, he will leave stealing alone

  25. What can we not see, and what is the penalty for looting the countries treasury dry? Sentence my sibling for stealing a lappy to death and watch me kill all your shildren. You will bury your child every month i swear with my life.

  26. Please the law says if you carry a gun to rob and you are caught, the penalty is death. What you stole is irrelevant. Stop screaming that he only stole laptop and phone. Many victims have resisted and were shot. Let an armed robber point a gun at you to rob you in your house with your wife and daughter, then you will understand the power of a loaded gun.

  27. Well the thief no try
    The police no try
    Our leaders no see t...not to talk of ry
    Well Nigeria have scatter finish
