According to Balogun, Afolabi organised a group of people to attack the local police officers who were on duty.

The prosecution went on to say that the defendant refused to be taken into custody by law enforcement officials carrying out their official tasks.

The defendant was granted N100,000 bond with two sureties in an amount equal to the bail amount by Magistrate Mrs. Olasinmibo Sanusi-Zubair.

She postponed the case’s hearing until June 6.
