Yewande Oyediran, a lawyer
who allegedly killed her husband, Lowo Oyediran, at their Akobo residence in
Ibadan on February 2nd, appeared before the Chief Magistrate’s Court in
Iyaganku, Oyo state yesterday February 16th.
At the brief hearing of the case, Amos
Adewale, the police officer investigating the case, informed the Chief
Magistrate in charge of the case, Kehinde Durosaro-Tijani that based on legal
advice from Department of Public Prosecution (DPP), the Magistrate’s court
lacked the jurisdiction to hear the case and so the case should be transferred
to the state High court.
The Chief Magistrate adjourned the case till March 1st and Yewande was taken back to Agodi prison where she has been locked up since the attack happened.
