“The defendant promised that she would take the two girls to Libya for prostitution and advised that particular girl to lie against her father that he wanted to sleep with her to free herself,” the prosecutor said.
He told the court that the girl’s father was remanded in the Kirikiri correctional facility as a result of the testimony.
A.B. Olagbegi-Adelabu, the chief magistrate, did not take Kehinde’s plea but adjourned the case to August 8 for legal advice from the office of the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).
