A Chief Magistrate Court sitting in Osogbo has remanded two female Suspects, Suliyat Tajudeen(20) and Ayomide Abdulazeez (20) in Ilesha Correctional Centre over alleged attempt to murder on the Osun State Governor, Mr Adegboyega Oyetola during #EndSARS protest in the state.

The two persons were arraigned before Chief Magistrate Olusegun Ayilara on Wednesday.

The police prosecutor, John Idoko charged the two on a six-count charge bordering on attempted murder, malicious damage, burglary and stealing.

However, the two pleaded not guilty to the offence preferred against them.

The counsel for the two, Nurudeen Kareem applied for their bail in the most liberal term.

The prosecutor opposed the bail application made by the Counsel on the ground that they will jump bail, if granted considering the overwhelming evidence the police have against them.

Ajilara ordered them to be remanded at Ilesa correctional centre.

He adjourned the case to 20 November 2020 for the hearing of bail application.

It would be recalled that that the Governor Gboyega Oyetola was attacked by the suspected hoodlums during EndSARS protest while he was addressing them at their convergence spot, Olaiya junction, Osogbo, Osun state capital.
