The Police on Friday arraigned six men who allegedly conducted themselves in a manner likely to cause a breach of the peace in a primary school in Lagos.

Odunayo Rufus, 23; Samuel Abidemi, 35; Ola Sunday, 27; Emmanuel Ojo, 20; Felix Omowole, 20; and Timi Kenny, 23, are facing a six-count charge bordering on conspiracy, assault, breach of peace, and felony.

The defendants pleaded not guilty to the charge at an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court where they were arraigned.

The Police Prosecutor, Insp Olusegun Oke, however, said that the defendants disturbed the peace of Oke Ira Primary School, Ogba, Lagos, on Nov. 24, about 8. 15 a.m.

He said that they insisted on picking a 12-year-old pupil from the school premises to an unknown destination, without the consent of the management.

Oke submitted that the defendants unlawfully assaulted another 13-year-old pupil, and maliciously dragged one Adam Rasaq to the school.

“The defendants unlawfully assembled together and began to act in a disorderly manner by shouting and hitting the school gate.

“They entered the school premises with an intent to commit a felony,” the prosecutor said.

The Magistrate, Mrs. F.D. Hughes admitted the defendants to N50,000 bail with two sureties in like sum.

Hughes ordered that the sureties must be gainfully employed and have evidence of two years’ tax payment to the Lagos State Government.

The Magistrate adjourned the case until Jan.14, for mention.
