A Chief Magistrate Court in Ibadan, Oyo State presided over by Mrs Olabisi Ogunkanmi, has ordered the remand of Prophetess Naomi Silekunola, the ex-wife of the Ooni of Ife at the Agodi Correctional Facility.

Also remanded by the court are Oriyomi Hamzat the owner of Agidigbo FM; and Bashorun Islamic High School Principal, Fasasi Abdulahi.

They  were remanded pending an advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) of the Oyo State Ministry of Justice.

The trio were earlier arraigned on Tuesday 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 witnessed 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.
