Friday, May 24, 2024 - An Iyaganku Magistrates’ Court, Ibadan, on
Friday remanded Imole Dauda, 19, and Lateef Tajudeen, 30, for allegedly
flogging a 22-year-old to death with ‘koboko’.
The defendants, whose addresses were not
provided, were charged with conspiracy and murder.
The Magistrate, Mrs Oluwabusayo Osho, did
not take their pleas for want of jurisdiction.
She directed the police to return the case
file to the state Director of Public Prosecutions for advice.
Osho adjourned the case until July 18 for
mention.
Earlier, the prosecutor, Insp Olalekan
Adegbite, told the court that the defendants committed the murder on May 10 at
8.00 a.m. at Ilupeju, Ibadan.
Adegbite alleged that the duo unlawfully
caused the death of Mr Tosin Adenuga by flogging him with ‘koboko’ all over his
body.
