The counsel for the defendants, Mr. Tunbosun Oladipupo made an oral bail application urging the court to admit them on the most liberal term.

The prosecutor opposed the bail claiming that their actions can cause economic sabotage. He added that the scene is an international religion centre and might tarnish the image of the religion. If they are granted bail they will further break the law of Osun State.

The presiding magistrate, Mr. Isola Omisade remanded them to Ilesha Correctional Center and adjourned the case to September 17, 2020, for ruling on bail.
