The arraignment of the Afrobeat musician, Seun Kuti, over an alleged assault on a police officer, has been fixed for September 27 before a Yaba Chief Magistrate’s Court in Lagos State.
Seun’s arraignment was stalled on Monday due to the absence of the presiding Chief Magistrate, Mrs. Adeola Olatunbosun, who was said to be indisposed.
The musician was nabbed by the officers of the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCIID), after he allegedly assaulted an Inspector of Police, Mohammed Aminu, attached to the Police Training College, Ikeja, while on an official movement and in police uniform on Third Mainland Bridge on May 13, 2023.
The police had approached the court on May 16, 2023, for his remand, pending the conclusion of further investigation.
