Oyo State Magistrate Court sitting in Iyaganku, Ibadan, has remanded skit maker, Abdullahi Maruff Adisa, popularly known as Trinityguy, in prison for sexualizing a minor in his viral skit video.
The Nigerian Police Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, had demanded the skit creator’s arrest. This was in response to a viral video of his perilous jokes.
The creator of the skit and the parent of the young girl featured in the popular video was questioned by Oyo State Police Command, according to a statement released on Friday, and they will appear in court on Monday, June 26, 2023.
Oludare Adebayo, the defendant’s attorney, appeared before the magistrate and begged the judge to release his client on bond. While denying the bail request, Magistrate PO Adetuyibi stated that the state ministry of justice is now looking into the allegations against the skit maker.
The court, however, ordered that the parents of the little girl in the video be remanded alongside Trinityguy till the next sitting.
Magistrate Adetuyibi therefore adjourned till July 11.
