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 Olori 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 three were being prosecuted over a stampede that occurred at the school.
No fewer than thirty-five children died during the incident, which happened on Wednesday, December 18, 2024.
An Oyo State Magistrate Court in Iyaganku had earlier ordered that the trio be remanded at the Agodi Correctional Facility.
