The Prosecutor, Insp. Akpan Ikem, told the court that the accused committed the offence on May 23, at a bookshop located in Ajara Vetho area of Badagry.
“When he got to the shop, he didn’t see anybody, so he decided to steal three cartons of textbooks but he was caught while coming out of the shop,” he said.
He said that the offence contravened Section 285 of the Criminal law of Lagos State, 2015 (Revised).
The accused pleaded not guilty to the charge.
