Ibadan, June 6, 2024 (NAN) An Iyaganku Magistrates’ Court in Ibadan on Thursday ordered the remand of two men: Dauda Ahmed 25 and Abdul Isiaka, 30, in a correctional facility in Ibadan over alleged murder.

The duo, whose house addresses were not provided, are being tried for conspiracy and murder.

The Magistrate, Mrs M. Olagbenro, did not, however, take their plea for want of jurisdiction.

Olagbenro directed the police to return the case file to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) for legal advice.

She adjourned the case till Sept. 23 for mention.

Earlier, the Prosecutor, ASP Foluke Adedosu, told the court that the defendants committed the offences on May 27, at about 9.30 p.m., at Ogbomoso, Oyo State.

Adedosu said that the defendants unlawfully caused the death of one Isaac Ayanniyi by stabbing him in the chest.

She said that the offences contravened Section 324 of the Criminal Laws of Oyo State, 2000. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
