As a result, after analyzing the facts of the case placed before him by the Prosecutor, ASP Wale Diyaolu, the Magistrate, Mr S. S. Sotayo, found Dosumu guilty, but with the option of a N200,000 fine.

Despite Dosumu’s admission of guilt, the Magisterate claimed that all the evidence presented to the court proved beyond a reasonable doubt that he was guilty of the crime charged.

The prosecution, Diyaolu, had previously informed the court that the convict committed the crime on Tuesday at Eyinni Comprehensive High School in Ogun State’s Iboro Yewa North Local Government Area.
