The Chief Magistrate Court in Iyaganku, Ibadan, has ordered the remand of Prophetess Naomi Silekunola, the former queen of Ooni of Ife; Oriyomi Hamzat, the owner of Agidigbo FM; and Abdullahi Fasasi, the principal of Bashorun Islamic High School, in connection with the tragic Ibadan stampede that resulted in multiple fatalities.
Eko Hot Blog gathered that the court ordered their remand in the Agodi Correctional Facility while awaiting advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) of the Oyo State Ministry of Justice.
This decision follows the arrest of the three individuals and five others by the Oyo State Police Command in relation to the circumstances that led to the deaths of 35 children in the stampede.
They are to be remanded in the Agodi Correctional Facility pending the advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) of the Oyo State Ministry of Justice.
They were arraigned on Tuesday before Chief Magistrate Court 1, Iyaganku, Ibadan, on a four-count charge of conspiracy, acceleration of death, negligent acts causing harm, and failure to provide adequate security and medical facilities.
The court premises also witnessed a bit of tension as supporters of Hamzat gathered, but heavy security presence ensured order.
The situation nearly escalated when police vans conveying the suspects began leaving the court premises.
