Notwithstanding, on January 3, 2025, he was arrested for alleged burglary at a residence in Osogbo with a stolen  plasma television valued at N600,000.

The suspect was arraigned before the Osun State Magistrate Court in Osogbo, presided over by Magistrate Adekanmi Adeyeba, on two counts of burglary and theft.

According to the police prosecutor Inspector Kayode Adeoye, “On January 3, 2025, at about 12:00 p.m. at Al-Medinat Area, Iludun, Osogbo, Omisakin broke into the house of one Shittu Damilare and stole a plasma TV worth N600,000.”

Omisakin has been remanded in  custody pending further court proceedings.

“The offence committed is contrary to and punishable under section 411 (1) (2) 363, 390(9) of criminal code cap 34 vol.II laws of Osun State of Nigeria 2002.”

However, he pleaded not guilty to the offence as his counsel, Najite Okobe urged the court to admit him to bail in most liberal terms.

The prosecutor opposed to the bail stating that “Governor Adeleker had just pardoned him few days ago. He was sentenced to prison by Magistrate Olusegun Ayilara and he was not done serving his jail term.”

 

 

Magistrate Adeyeba ordered that he should be remanded in Ilesa Correctional Facility and adjourned the case to January 10th 2025 when he was denied bail.

He subsequently adjourned to February 2025 for  hearing.
