Three suspected cult members have been remanded at the Ikoyi Prison for allegedly killing a 30-year-old man, Seyi Jimoh, and inflicting injuries on his ten-month-old baby with cutlass.
The three defendants – Emmanuel Samson, Tunji Olanrewaju and Joshua Ogunnusi- were said to have committed the offence at the Alapere area of Lagos.
It is however not clear why the late Jimoh and his daughter were attacked by the men at their residence.
The suspects were arraigned before an Ebute Meta Chief Magistrate’s Court for murder and assault.
The charge read in part, “That you, Emmanuel Samson, Tunji Olanrewaju, Joshua Ogunnusi and others at large on the 8th of September, 2013 at about 3am, at Akainimodu area of Alapere, Lagos, in the Lagos Magisterial District, did unlawfully kill one Seyi Jimoh, aged 30, by cutting him with cutlass.”
The prosecutor, Cousin Adam, said the offences were punishable under Sections 409, 221, 171 and 42 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, Nigeria, 2011.
