Two men, Shehu Umaru (40) and Muhammadu Riskua (30), were arraigned on Monday before an Ado-Ekiti Chief Magistrates’ Court over alleged unlawful grazing.

The defendants, of unknown addresses, are facing a charge of unlawful grazing.

The prosecutor, ASP Akinwale Oriyomi, told the court that the defendants committed the offence on August 11 at about 2:00 p.m. in Itapaji-Ekiti.

He alleged that the defendants unlawfully grazed their cattle on an unauthorised farmland in the Itapaji-Ekiti forest.

Mr Oriyomi said that the offence contravenes Section 2 and is punishable under Section 7 of the Prohibition of Cattle and Other Ruminant Grazing in Ekiti State Law, 2016.

He urged the court to adjourn the case to enable him to study the case file and assemble his witnesses.

The defendants, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge preferred against them.

Counsel to the defendants, Gboyega Abiola, urged the court to grant the defendants bail, promising they would not jump bail.

In his ruling, Chief Magistrate Abayomi Adeosun granted bail to the defendants in the sum of N50,000 each, with one surety each in like sum.

He adjourned the case till September 14 for hearing.
