The Magistrates, Mr P. E Nwaka, who did not take the defendants’ plea, said they should be in the Custodial Centre pending the release of Director of Public Prosecution’s advice.
Nwaka then adjourned the case until Dec. 3 for mention.
Mrs Olayemi Sofolu, Principal State Counsel from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) office, told the court that the offences were committed on Oct. 23 at Lekki during the #ENDSARS protest.
‘The defendants robbed innocent citizens of their valuables and also set ablaze Lekki Toll Gate, Ajah Police Station and vehicles,’ she said.
The prosecutor said that the offences contravened Sections 45(1), 341, 297 and 299 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
