A man identified as Godwin Bassey, has been dragged to court by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly stealing a Toyota Corolla car worth N5m, belonging to one Amuta Friday, in the Ejigbo area of the state.

The 27-year-old mechanic was arraigned on two counts of stealing before Magistrate Patrick Nwaka, who held a brief for Magistrate Balogun at a Magistrates’ Court sitting in the Yaba area of the state.

The prosecutor, Chekwube Okeh, told the court that the defendant committed the offence sometime in March 2023.

According to her, Friday, on March 9, 2023, hired and paid Bassey N32,000 to repaint his Corolla car, a job that would take three days based on their agreement.

Bassey, however, left with the car on that day and since then, all efforts made to reach him proved abortive until he was arrested.

According to Okeh, the offences contravened Sections 411 and 287 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2015.

The charges against him read in part, “That you, Godwin Bassey, and others still at large, sometime in March 2023, in Ejigbo, Lagos, in the Lagos Magisterial District, did steal a black Toyota Corolla valued at N5m, property of one Amuta Friday, and thereby committed an offence punishable under Section 287 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State of Nigeria, 2015.”
