“When I came to the Lekki area of Lagos, I took up work as a security man. I was paid N25,000 monthly.
“After I was fired from the security work, a friend, Chima, and I decided we were going to rob and get money to solve our problems. It was on February 23 that we snatched the car.“Two ladies were inside the vehicle. We accosted them and pointed a gun at them. They both jumped out and took to their heels. It was a toy gun.
“As we fled, the vehicle began to give us problems. It had a gear problem.As I alighted, a crowd swooped on me, but Chima escaped.”
