The Chief Magistrate Court in Yaba, Lagos State, has adjourned the trial of Afrobeat musician, Seun Kuti, to Wednesday.
The trial, which was scheduled to hold on Tuesday, was adjourned to Wednesday, May 24, due to absence of the Magistrate, Adeola Olatubosun, from court.
Recall that Seun Kuti was arrested for assaulting a police officer on the Third Mainland bridge, prompting the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Usman Baba, to order his arrest.
The afrobeat musician later turned himself in at the Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja, accompanied by his lawyer and family representative
He was later transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID), Panti, where he was eventually detained.
