A 14-Year Old Minor was arraigned by the Police in Lagos, on Tuesday, before a Badagry Chief Magistrate Court for an alleged N4 Million theft.
The Minor (name withheld) is facing a two-count- charge of breach of peace and stealing, to which she pleaded not guilty.
Inspector Ayodele Adeosun, the Prosecutor told the Court that the defendant committed the offences on January 31, 2025 at 12.01.p.m at Ajara Tozunkanmeh area of Badagry, Lagos State.
Adeosun alleged that the defendant conducted herself in a manner likely to cause a breach of peace by entering into the house of one Hannah Oni with a spare key without her consent.
The prosecutor said that the defendant stole the sum of N4 million belonging to the complainant.
In his words, “This is not the first time the defendant will be entering the room of the complainant with a spare key to steal money.
“On that very day, Bayewunmi was caught inside the house of the complainant stealing money.
“The defendant was handed over to Police for prosecution,” he said.
Adeosun said that the offences contravened Sections 168 and 287 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State.
The Chief Magistrate, Patrick Adekomaiya, granted the defendant bail in the sum of N300,000 with one surety, who must be the father of the defendant.
