Yusuf Bello, a 25-year-old man, has been remanded in the Agodi correctional facility by a Chief Magistrate Court in Mapo, Ibadan.

The court took this action after Bello pleaded not guilty to charges of unlawful house break, theft, and malicious damage to property.

Presiding Magistrate Mrs O.O. Latunji granted the defendant a bail of N250,000 with two sureties, but Bello was unable to meet the bail conditions and was subsequently remanded.

The trial has been adjourned until May 18.
