The judge had ordered that the bail conditions must be granted within seven days while declaring that the next sittings will be on July 26, 27 and 28.
He was charged on six-count charges of segxwal assault by penetration, indecent treatment of a child, and segxwal assault, which contravene sections 259, 135, and 261 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2011, as well as 135, 263, and 262 Criminal Law of Lagos State 2015.
