Ibadan Stampede: Court Grants Principal, Hamzat, Naomi Bail

An Oyo State High Court sitting in Ibadan, the state capital, has granted bail to the principal of Islamic High School, Bashorun, Ibadan, Mr. Abdullahi Fasasi; the proprietor of Agidigbo FM, Alhaji Oriyomi Hamzat; and Prophetess Naomi Silekunola, an estranged wife of the Ooni of Ile-Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi.

The bail was granted by Justice K.B. Olawoyin on Monday.

Our correspondent reports that the trio were granted bail after the judge listened to the arguments of their counsels.

The trio were being prosecuted over a stampede that occurred on Wednesday, December 18, 2024 at the school which led to the death of not fewer than thirty-five children.
