The Ekiti State Police Command has arraigned two young men before an Ado-Ekiti Chief Magistrates’ Court over an alleged breach of peace.
The defendants, Kayode Oluwanifemi, 21, and Fasiku Precious, 20, were accused of threatening violence against one Aderemi Aladesanmi alongside other suspects still at large.
Police prosecutor, ASP Akinwale Oriyomi, told the court that the incident allegedly occurred around 8pm on October 3, 2026, in Odo community, within the Ado-Ekiti Magisterial District.
Oriyomi said the alleged offence contravened Sections 422, 181(1)(d) and 69 of the Criminal Law of Ekiti State, 2021.
Counsel for the defendants, Alabi Stephen, applied for bail, assuring the court that his clients would attend subsequent proceedings and would not abscond.
In his ruling, the Chief Magistrate, Mr Abayomi Adeosun, admitted each defendant to bail in the sum of ₦50,000, with one surety in like sum.
The magistrate subsequently adjourned the case until November 27, 2026, for hearing.
