The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Justice Soladoye ruled on Monday that due to the grievous nature of the offence, the court using its discretionary powers will deny the students bail.
“The applicants are denied bail and this honourable court shall give this case accelerated hearing,” Justice Soladoye said. On April 18, the bail application of a co-defendant, James Aguedo, a 20-year-old student of Babcock University, was also denied by the court because he did not provide compelling circumstances to warrant bail being granted to him.
