Following the upstair of drama and call-outs by youths and media in freedom for the Akoguns on their rights ruckus with the Kwara State Police Commissioner. Gladly update speaks well of the court outcome as the brothers regained their freedom on bail.
Based on reports gathered, this was derived:
There was serious drama as the prosecutor from the Commissioner of Police was not informed that the Office of the Attorney General has taken over the case through his counsel.
The prosecutor from the Commissioner of Police later withdraws from the case after forth and back arguments. Thereafter, the state counsel asked the court for 24hrs to study the bail application and apply for a counter, in a bid to further detain the Akoguns.
Recall that a rally was said to have being held on Monday 17th of October, 2022 in the call for freedom for the brothers.
The court however has this to say: Since the police that was prosecuting the case had refused to file a counter application while still in charge, the state counsel cannot file it any longer, as such, the request of the state counsel is hereby dismissed.
Court to Prosecuting Counsel: "You should not waste our time, there is no counter application before me."
Bail granted!
