My wife prays for me before I go for robbery operations – Robber confesses in court

A notorious robber, Mr. Idowu Dosumu, has revealed that his wife knew he was a criminal and used to pray for him whenever he woke up early in the morning to go for operations.

The 34-year old Dosumu was on Monday 5th June, 2018, arrested after he burgled a house and stole a laptop belonging to one Dike Charles at 24 Falaka Street, Graceland Estate, Idimu, Lagos, and will have to serve 18 months in prison without an option of fine as handed down by Ejigbo Magistrates court, Lagos.

The Ogun State-born Dosumu said that he was trained as a vulcanizer, he started work but had no clients to patronise him and so he went into full robbery. The father of one said he was used to prison conditions because he had spent many months and years for over five times before he was convicted again on Monday.

The prosecutor, Supol Kenneth Asibor presented the facts before the court and informed the Presiding Magistrate, Mr. T.O. Shomade that Dosumu was a habitual criminal who cannot change.

Asibor also informed the court that Dosumu had been convicted and gone to prison on several occasions for the similar offence in the past. He therefore urged the court to sentence him accordingly to serve as deterrent to others who might try such offence. The court found him guilty as charged and sentenced him accordingly.

Dosumu was being taken to the prison van enroute to prison, he was playing with the prison warders while announcing to them that he was coming back to prison.
