An Oyo State High Court, sitting in Ring Road, Ibadan, has granted bail to Naomi Silekunola, the former queen of the Ooni of Ife, along with Ibadan-based media personality Oriyomi Hamzat and Abdulahi Fasasi, the Principal of Islamic High School.
The New Daily Prime earlier reported that the trio were arranged and remanded over a stampede that occurred in December 2024.
The stampede led to the death of 35 children and many being hospitalised.
