Usama Abdullahi, a 24-year-old convict, says he stole
packs of noodles for his three girlfriends, but none of them visited him in
prison.

According to Daily Trust, Abdullahi spoke before the Adamawa
state jail delivery committee, a special mobile court constituted to review
certain cases with a view to decongesting correctional centres.

The convict, who worked as a car wash employee in Shelleng
LGA of the state, said he ran away to another town after the offence before his
eventual arrest.

He was then sentenced to two years’ imprisonment for the
theft at Shelleng Satellite Custodial Facility.

“I stole Indomie and distributed it to my three
girlfriends,” he said.

“Since I arrived at the facility, none of them paid me a
visit. I promise to end the relationship with them once I gain my freedom.”

In response to his plea, Hafsat Abdulrahman, chairperson of
the committee, reviewed Abdullahi’s jail term and converted it to community
service.
