Pathetic:Girl Spends Four Years Behind Bars Awaiting Trial over a Crime Of Six Months

[Justin Nnamdi]

 20-year-old Blessing Effiong has finally regained her freedom after almost four years (without trial) in Kirikiri prisons for being in possession of a stolen phone. She pled guilty today to section 430 (1) of the criminal code of Lagos state 2003. In layman's language – being in possession of something suspected of being stolen or fraudulently obtained; an offense that carries 6 months imprisonment. The court today sentenced her to six months imprisonment but having served almost four years already,Her Attorney Pleaded She Should be set Free as she has learnt her Lesson!!

  The Young Woman Was later Set Free To Go And Sin N̶̲̥̅̊Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ More.(Laughing)

That is bringing home this wonderful point everyone loves to run away from, this unique point that people hate to hear, this lovely point that has to be driven home.The point is STEALING IS NOT GOOD!

Even though it was not right to have been kept for that long but if she had not stolen she wouldn't have been in jail in the first place.
