Nigeria Police Force on Friday arraigned two men Kehinde Oguntola, 19 and Fabiyi Ismail, 30, in an Iyaganku Magistrates’ Court Ibadan, for allegedly wounding one Abiola Salawu, staff member of Oyo State Road Transport Management Authority (OYRTMA).

The duo whose residential addresses were not provided, were charged with conspiracy and causing grievous bodily harm.

The Prosecutor, Mr Philip Amusan, told the court that the accused persons committed the offence on May 24, at 1. 00 p.m, at Bovas Petrol Station area, Dugbe, Ibadan.

He alleged that Salawu was on admission in the hospital as a result of the bodily harm.
