The Lagos State Special Offences Court in Ikeja yesterday
sentenced 10 people to 10 hours of community service each for hanging on
coaches of the Mass Transit Train Service.
The Magistrate, Mrs. I. O Omotosho said in her judgment that
the community service would be determined by the Lagos State Community Services
Department. She also said she was lenient with the convicts because they had
spent one week in custody since their arrest at Ikeja Train Station on October
3.
“I hope that this will serve as a deterrent to others,” she
said.
