“I am a fraudster and I know I have committed an offence but I am pleading, I will not go into crime again if I am pardoned.

"I am not an armed robber, but a fraudster. I have two wives and seven children and I feed them all from the money I make through this fraud,” says Mahmuda Hamza.

He was arrested at a time when the state police declared war against hooligans.

Spokesperson for the police DSP Cordelia Nwawe confirmed the commitment of the force to bring to a close the activities of criminals.
