The convict pleaded guilty to both charges before his conviction and sentencing on Thursday.
Presiding Magistrate A.M. Ayo-Alagbe, found him guilty and sentenced him to one month for disturbing the peace and six months for stealing.
The sentences will run concurrently, meaning the convict will serve six months in total.
