Government Area of Ogun State, Chief Jimoh Adebayo, and two others were arraigned at an
Owode-Egba Chief Magistrate’s Court for allegedly
stealing a bunch of plantain from a church. They were alleged to have scaled the fence of the
church where they reportedly stole the bunch of
plantain valued at N2, 000. One of the accused persons was also alleged to
have threatened and chased the pastor of the
church with cutlass when the latter caught him. The police prosecutor, Sergeant Evidence
Onyenmaobi, told the court that the monarch
alongside two other persons whose names were
given as 70-year-old Wahab Atenreti and
Surajudeen Ayenreti, 35, allegedly connived to
steal the bunch of plantain within the premises of Jubilee Baptist Church in the area on December 31,
2012. The prosecutor argued that
the offence contravened
Sections 516, 390 (9) and 86 (2) of the Criminal
Code Laws of Ogun State, 2006. However, the Baale and the two others pleaded not
guilty to the three counts of conspiracy, stealing
and threat to life. Their counsel, Mr. Ade Agbolade pleaded with the
court to grant his clients bail, assuring that they
would not jump bail
