A Grade I Area Court sitting in Kabusa, Abuja, on Thursday, sentenced a 30-year-old painter, Zakaraya Usman to two months imprisonment for stealing four bibles, 124 church membership forms and others.

The police charged Usman with theft.

The Judge, Malam Abubakar Sadiq, sentenced the convict after he pleaded guilty to the charge.

Sadiq, however, gave him the option to pay a fine of N10,000 or serve the jail term.

“Based on your admission to committing the crime, you are hereby, convicted as charged.

“You are also hereby sentenced to two months imprisonment, or pay a fine of N10,000,’’ the judge ruled.

Sadiq also advised the convict not to repeat the act and warned that the court would not be lenient on him if he commits such a crime again.

Earlier, the Prosecution Counsel, Mr O. S. Osho told the court that the matter was reported at the Durumi Police Station by Mr David Usman, the Chief Security Officer of Living Faith Church, Durumi I branch.

Osho said that the convict trespassed into the church premises and stole three mini bibles, one big bible, 14 Caprisonne drinks, two bottles of water, 18 testimonial certificates, and 124 church membership forms.
