Two men, Ahmed Abdullahi, and
Nura Musa were on Tuesday arraigned in a Wuse Zone 2 Magistrates’ Court sitting
in Abuja, for allegedly blocking the convoy of Kogi State Governor, Yahaya
Bello.
Abdullahi, 37, and Musa, 23, both
of Asokoro, Abuja, are facing a 1-count charge of public nuisance.
The prosecutor, Adeniyi Oyeyemi,
told the court that the defendants committed the offence on February 24 at Wuse
Zone 4, Abuja.
Oyeyemi said the defendants
unlawfully parked their car and blocked the road and sat unconcerned until the
security of the governor came down to arrest them.
He said during a search of their
vehicle, a bottle of codeine was found.
The offence, according to the
police, contravened Section 183 of the Penal Code.
The defendants, however, pleaded
not guilty.
The Magistrate, Emenisi Ebiwari,
granted them bail in the sum of N500, 000 each and a surety in like sum.
Ebiwari adjourned the case until
March 15 for further hearing.
