Due to accusations of armed robbery, two individuals were placed under remand in a correctional facility by an Iyaganku Magistrates’ Court in Ibadan on Wednesday.

The two people, Olamilekan Ridwan, 28, and Akanni Sodiq, 29, whose addresses are unknown, are accused of conspiring and armed robbery.

The defendants’ plea was rejected by Magistrate Olaolu Olanipekun for lack of jurisdiction.

In order to obtain legal counsel, Olanipekun instructed the police to return the case file to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP).
