An Iyaganku Magistrates' Court, Ibadan, on Monday sentenced one Muideen Yinusa, 43, to two months imprisonment, at Agodi Correctional facility, Ibadan, for stealing company's flex banner.

The Magistrate, Mrs G. T. Oladele sentenced Yinusa to two months imprisonment or an option of four months community service, (two hours per day) with guarantors standing in for him.
Yinusa who pleaded guilty to the charge went with the option of two months imprisonment because he did not have any surety.
