In a Facebook post shared on Thursday, February 12, Boshe recounted how the alleged thief had consistently invaded his property at night.

"This person has been tormenting my home by stealing continuously every time I store my yams after harvesting. For three whole years, he has been coming to my place to take what is mine. Thankfully, one day for the owner after 99 days for the thief," he expressed in his post.

He described the moment he caught the thief: "Just last night, he stole some items and hid them near my house. I went inside to get something, and when I returned, I realized something was missing. While searching the area, I spotted him with the stolen goods and caught him immediately. He began confessing to all the thefts he had committed."
