Traditional Worshippers/Muslims clash: Osun government calls for calm

June 28, 2021

An Osun State Magistrates’ Court sitting in Osogbo, on Thursday has remanded eight persons for allegedly assaulting some leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,  in the State.

The defendants  are: Olaniyan Jelili 53years, AWOTUNDE NURENI 35,  NURUDEEN TAOHEED 30,  TIAMIYU OLAMIDE 33,  ZACCHEUS AWOSOGBON 41,   ONIKOLA ADEKUNLE 46,  RASAKI LAWAL BAWONI 44,  ADEBISI SARAFA ADITU 45, alleged for assault and breach of public peace.

The prosecutor, Inspector Elisha Olusegun  informed  the court that the defendants  committed the offence on  February 10, 2020, at PDP Secretariat, Osogbo .

According to him, the individuals conspired among themselves and attempted to kill one Diran Odeyemi by hitting him with sticks which made  him unconscious for hours,  alongside Akin Adeyi, both chieftains of the opposition PDP.  

He added that the offence committed are contrary  and punishable under section 516,320(1) ,355,351,249(d) law of Osun state, 2002.

The defendants however  pleaded not guilty to five-count  charge leveled against them by the police 

The two defence counsels,  Sina Adeniran and Nurudeen Kareem urged the court to grant their clients bail in the most liberal terms, as they promised that none of the defendants  would jump bail,  adding that  they would also  provide reliable sureties to stand for them.

In a swift reaction therefore,  the prosecutor opposed the bail application,  informing   the court that the offence  committed remained heinous and  that  if they were granted bail, there is high possibility of jumping bail as well as   influencing  witnesses  in the matter.  

In his ruling,  the Magistrate , O.A Ayilara ordered the remand of the defendants   at  Ilesa Correctional centre.

He thereby adjourned the matter till the 6th of March, 2020 for ruling on bail.
