Court Jails Three Ex-convicts 120 Years For Illegal Possession Of Arms by CeeJay9ja(m): 11:33am On May 16, 2019
The State High Court has sentenced three ex-convicts- Musbau Oloyede, Femi Olasupo and Ahmed Akinsanya who were arrested in 2011 by men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad for terrorising
residents in the Iwo Road area of Ibadan, Oyo State 40 years imprisonment each on Wednesday.
It was gathered that neighbours of Olasupo had reported him to the police alleging that he had no source of livelihood and there are people of questionable characters living with him.
These ex-convicts, after rigorous trial that lasted about seven years, were found guilty of conspiracy and illegal possession of firearms by Oyo State High Court in Ibadan contrary to the Robbery and Firearms (Special Provisions) Act Laws of the Federation.

According to the prosecution in the suit marked 1/1786/2012 heard before Justice Adegboye Gbolagunte of the Ring Road High Court 7, the first accused person was arrested in March 2011.

During investigation, he led detectives to an uncompleted building along Iwo Road were four guns were recovered. Olasupo's arrest led to the arrest of Oloyede who also had some firearms in his possession but the third accused person was arrested with no arms in his possession.

The Judge said,
" In my view, the recovery of firearms in possession of the accused is sufficient to justify their guilt. It was my decision after the trial-within-trial that the accused feel guilty of conspiracy. They were jailed together at Ilesa Prison and released at about the same time. Count one is well founded and sustained in this case. I, therefore, hold that the accused are guilty of the offences as charged," he said.

120 yrs is not bad if you have made up your mind to take laws into your own hands.
