Babalola Rotimi Junior, 24, had been remanded at the Ikoyi Prisons.
The man was sent to jail for the alleged murder of his father and
stabbing his mother into a state of unconsciousness with knives he
bought from Shoprite.
According to The News Agency of Nigeria, Magistrate Bola
Folarin-Williams of an Ebute Meta Chief Magistrates’ Court gave the
order when the appeared before her on a two-count charge of murder and
attempted murder with knives.
The magistrate said the accused should be remanded pending the
receipt of legal advice from the Lagos State Director of Public
Prosecutions(DPPs).
Rotimi’s plea on the first count of murder was, however, not taken as the court lacked the jurisdiction to try such matters.
He, however pleaded not guilty to the charge of attempted murder
and was granted a bail of N500,000 with two responsible sureties both of
whom must be blood relations.
Earlier, the prosecutor, Cpl. Hafsat Ajibodu, had told the court
that the accused committed the offences on Dec. 4 at about 11. 30 a.m.,
at No. 11, Ibitayo St., Magodo GRA, Phase 2 in Lagos State.
She alleged that the accused had stabbed his father, Babalola Rotimi, 59, to death with a kitchen knife .
The accused was also alleged to have stabbed his mother, Adijat
Babalola, who is presently battling with her life in an undisclosed
hospital with another knife.
“My father wanted to use charms to make me rich, I don’t know
why he would want to do that to me despite being a practising Muslim.
“My parents would lock me up and send thugs to beat me up, I
stabbed them out of frustration and because he would not give me money
for my upkeep.
“I went to Shoprite to purchase two knives to defend myself and to gain my freedom because I was always locked up in my room,” Rotimi Junior said.
The prosecutor said that the offences contravened Sections 221 and 222 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.
The accused, a deportee from Ireland, showed no sign of remorse and
claimed his father deserved what he dished to him while in court.
Section 221 prescribes a death sentence for offenders.
The court adjourned the case till Jan. 23, 2017 pending the receipt
of legal advice from the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions
(DPPs).
