Justice O. F. Enemmo of a High Court sitting in Kwale, Delta State, yesterday sentenced two men to 10 years imprisonment for illegally possessing a cut-to-size single-barrel gun.
The convicts, Mr Joshua Anamali, 25, and Mr Nelson Adoh, 30, currently at the custodial centre in Kwale, were found guilty after the judge carefully examined their cases.
According to the prosecution, the convicts were arrested by police officers during a routine stop and search on January 27, 2021, at Ndemili in the Ndokwa West Local Council of the state, where the exhibit was recovered from them. 
During the trial, the prosecuting counsel, Mrs Catherine Oboreruomo, called two witnesses who testified against the convicts while they defended themselves.
In a chat with journalists after the judgement, Oboreruomo advised young people to shun crime, affirming that the result of crime is condemnation and destruction.
