The defendant, who resides in Fagge, Kano, is charged with theft, to which he pleaded guilty.
The Judge, Ismai’l Muhammad-Ahmed, adjourned the matter until July 26 for summary trial.
Earlier, the Prosecution counsel, Mr Abdul Wada told the court that the defendant committed the offence on June 27 at Kabobo street in Fagge street, Kano.
