The date for Afrobeat musician Seun Kuti’s arraignment has been set on September 27 by a Chief Magistrate Court in Yaba, Lagos. According to Naija News
The case was postponed on Monday because Chief Magistrate Adeola Olaunbosun, the judge presiding over it, was ill.
The case has now been postponed a total of four times.
Remember that on May 13 the previous Inspector General of Police Usman Baba ordered the artist’s arrest for attacking a police officer in uniform on the Third Mainland Bridge. As a result, the musician was apprehended.
The son of Afrobeat musician Fela Anikulapo-Kuti defended himself by alleging through his Instagram Story that a police officer attempted to kill him but chose not to press charges.
He was hauled into custody, shackled, and transferred to the state CID in Panti, Yaba for an investigation, but on May 23, after satisfying the terms of his bail, he was freed.
