Daily Trust reports that the prosecutor, Babajide Olanipekun, had told the court that Julius Samuel, reported at the Dutsen Alhaji Police Station on November 29, 2015, that the accused went to his house and attempted to have anal sex with him, adding that when the complainant refused, the suspect bit off his lower lip.

When the charge was read to Ezekiel, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to three months imprisonment by the judge, Mohammed Marafa.

The judge also ordered Ezekiel to pay Samuel compensation in the sum of N8, 000.
