An Ikeja Magistrates’ Court on Thursday ordered the remand of Chinasa Michael, accused of setting fire to a BRT bus terminal at Oyingbo in Lagos during a protest in 2020 over alleged police abuses.
The defendant, 21, who is unemployed and resides at No. 21, Ilogbo St., Apapa Road, Lagos, is being tried for conspiracy, arson, and causing breach of peace.
