However, the accused person pleaded not guilty to the charges preferred against him.

Luqman Adeleke, the defence counsel applied for the bail of the accused person, saying the suspect is an ulcer patient and he needs medical attention, saying, despite that he had been detained by the police for a week.

The prosecutor, Inspector Jafani Muslim objected to the bail application, arguing that the suspect has committed a similar case at Ekiti State and the officers are looking for him.
