The defendant, whose address is unknown, is standing trial on a count of charge breach of peace.

The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty before a Badagry Chief Magistrates’ Court.

The prosecutor, Insp Ayodele Adeosun, told the court that the defendant committed the offence on April 29 at 10.30 p.m. at Ilogbo-Eremi, Badagry, Lagos State.

Adeosun said that the defendant conducted himself in a manner likely to breach the peace by posting pictures of another cleric, Mrs Mayowa Abimbola, on Facebook and tagging her a ritualist.

According to the prosecutor, the defendant and Abimbola, the complainant, had a good relationship until recently.
