didn't caught me' account of his arrest by policemen who accused him and others
of engaging in homosexuality, has served an update on the case which has lingered
for over a year.

adjourning the court dates without considering the stress the young men
involved are passing through.

revealed that he has always wanted to bring up the case on social media, but
has been restrained by their lawyer.
He wrote " Hello masses. I’m literally calling the

during an alleged gay initiation rites at a hotel in Egbeda were arraigned at
the federal high court in the state on Tuesday November 5, but Justice Rilwan Aikawa said the courtroom

He said he would have
to adjourn the arraignment in order to get a bigger courtroom where the
proceeding could take place. The case was adjourned till November 22.
