    A Chief Magistrates’ Court in Ikorodu, Lagos State, on Wednesday, November 29, ordered the remand of one Adejoh Musa, 45 and Adamu Sule, 60, for allegedly defiling a six-year-old girl, NAN reports.

    The defendants, whose addresses were not provided, are facing a count charge of defilement.

    The Chief Magistrate, Mrs A.B Olagbegi-Adelabu, who did not take the pleas of the defendants, ordered their remand in the Correctional Centre in Lagos.
