The spokesperson of the Nigeria Police Force, A Olumuyiwa Adejobi, says that persons below the age of seven are the ones that cannot be charged to court.



According to him, anyone who is above seven years of age can be charged to court if found wanting.



He stated this in an interview with Channels TV while reacting to the public outcry for the arraignment of 67 minors in a court in Abuja for alleged treason and destruction of public property during the End Bad Governance protest.



Speaking during the interview, Adejobi said;

‘’Those that are not criminally liable under the law, those are the ones that are below the age of seven. Once you are more than seven, you can be charged to court, The only thing is that you have to follow certain procedures to do that. None of them is less than seven. I think the youngest should be 13. The fact that you are a 13 year old doesn't mean you cannot be charged to court. In the Children and Young Persons act, we can still charge you to court.

We have charged them to court for this on behalf of the Federal government of Nigeria. The police has taken the bull by the horn.

They want to create Fear for northerners youths mind. You are beating Nigerians most especially northerners but you don't want them to cry.

That is why education is the key..... The almajiri boys are not educated and can't have a logical thinking of what they are doing during the protest. The northerners brought this upon themselves.

But the president should have known that these children are not that wise to know what they are doing.

See one useless person claiming educated...

Your generation is the one that is useless. You must have being through alot to know when someone is useless.

I am not the one responsible for your misfortune. Abeg clear road .

UFN SHOULD BE LIKE USA WHERE THEY ARE PLANNING TO SENTENCE FETUSES TO DEATH AND DESTRUCTION.

Nigeria has 420years to catch up with the rest of the world

I have a question tho.

—A young lady not up to 18 just mud 4 people in Edo state using poison. Can she be arrested, tried, and jailed?

—We’ve seen instances of kids of 13 years being part of bandit rings. Can they be charged to court and jailed?

The only bad thing I see here is that Nigerian police should have released those guys long ago. Even if they are vandals, let their state governor prosecute them if he so wish to. FG should remove hand in this, it is not their fight.

Hmm hmmn

Under buhari, Nigeria was moving 500 steps backward everyday, but under tinubu, Nigeria is currently moving 10 million steps backward in every second.

Ensiere ni ilu yi ooo


Many of you are psychopaths, you just don't know. When the bible said the world lieth in wickedness and gross darkness has pervaded the earth,I guess it was referring to nigeria. Same police wey dey see shege promax from government still dey opress children.uneducated and unskilled children for that matter.wetin poor kids know as treason.

So bokoharam can be pardoned but poor kids that are just vulnerable and ignorant cannot be pardoned.e be like say even Nigerians themselves are masochists

.

That can only happen if the country is a Zoo!

But please our country is not a Zoo.

Can you,Olokpa arrest or put your 10years old son or daughter in cell?

Na them,

Olumuyiwa Adejobi

Wow, I still made it to the front page even after several minutes this thread was pushed to the front page, why? Because there's no Peter Obi in the post. Assuming it was Peter Obi that made this comment, your guess is as good as mine.

To be a BATidiot and an APC zombie, you must possess the following criteria, of which number 5 criterion is a must.

1. You must be heartless.
2. You must possess a PhD in lying.
3. You must hate Peter Obi and the Igbos.
4. You must always evil.
5. You must be a Yoru Muslim.
6. You must be an enemy of Nigeria and the people of Nigeria.
7. You must possess a minimum of Bsc in suffering and smiling.
8. You must possess a minimum of Bsc in illiteracy.
9. You must be ready to curse and kee at a slightest provocation.
10. You must possess a minimum of Msc in hypocrisy.
11. You must possess a minimum of Bsc in propaganda.
12. You must be a criminal.

How can a policeman not know the law? This spokesman is talking rubbish

Vicotex:
where this one dey for constitution ?
lawers in the house?

They can only be brought to Juvenile courts...

Police man should quote where that is in our constitution

He's right about that.

Same in most parts of the world.

They would need to be tried in Juvenile court though.

Fear God

The more reason you should cover their face. The press should've blurred their face in the course reporting. Again, their matter should have been handled by juvenile Court spearheaded by a judge with adequate knowledge on how to handle juvenile matters.

9ja police consent age is now 7 years and no more the official 18years wowwwwww. na for Aboki's to go find 7year old girls dey marry be that
...yeye APC police and govt.

And, you can also be remanded in an adult prison abi? Bunch of lunatics in uniform and government

Y are dey defending dix injustice?

Protesting is a constitutional right


People below 17yrs are not supposed to be charged


Wat is dier crime dat warranted remanding them for months ?

No lawyer was provided, no bail, and they were remanded for more that 72hrs

Dix people need to revise d constitution to know when to do their nonsense.

Humm

We are talking about jailed for months under poor conditions even b4 any arraignment. I don't see how anyone sensible person can defend this inhumane act.
