A popular Lagos auto dealer, Ikechukwu Ogbonna, alias (IVD) was on Monday arraigned before an Ikeja High Court for alleged involuntary manslaughter of his wife,  Abimbola.

Naija247news  reports that the Lagos State Government arraigned IVD on one count of  involuntary manslaughter.

He, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.

The State Counsel, Mrs Adeshola Bello had informed the court that the defendant was for arraignment, adding that there was a mixed up in the date the alleged offence was committed.

The offence, she said, contravened the Section 222 of the Criminal Laws of Lagos State, 2015.

“We have on record Oct.10, 2022 but the actual date if the incident was Oct.12

“We pray for the indulgence of the court to make amendment on the date,” she said.

The defence counsel, Mr Victor Ogunde, SAN, sought for bail for the defendant, following his arraignment.

Ogunde added that the suit against the defendant was with a different number.

Justice Modupe Nicole-Clay  questioned the defence for bringing a bail application despite the defendant being  on bail since March 1.

Nicole-Clay  thereafter adjourned until March 30 for the commencement of trial.

Naija247news reports that Abimbola was said  to have died as a result of the fire incident that occurred in the couple’s home on  Oct.12, 2022. ( www.naija247news.com)
