Two men, Sunday Meku, 27, and Michael Daniel, 26,
have been arraigned before a Lagos High Court in
Igbosere, for allegedly robbing one Isaac Ezoh of his
property while armed with offensive weapons. Meku and Daniel were said to have attacked Engineer
Isaac Ezoh while armed with cutlass, broken bottles
and hammer and dispossessed him of N165, 000 cash
and six mobile phones. The duo are facing a two-count charge of conspiracy
and armed robbery, but pleaded not guilty when the
charges were read to them. According to the charge,
Meku and Daniel committed the offences on June 20,
2008 at Techno Horizon Company, Alesh Str., off Kiri-
Kiri town, Apapa, Lagos at 9.00 p.m. State counsel, Mr Afolabi Sholebo informed the court that the offences
contravened Sections 402 and 403 of the Criminal
Code Laws of Lagos State. At the resumed trial, Sholebo told the court that there
were no witnesses in court and asked for a trial date
to enable him produce witnesses in court which the
defense counsel, Mr O. A Azeez, didn’t object to. The presiding judge, Justice Aishat Opesanwo
subsequently adjourned the case to February 13 for
continuation of trial.
