One of the count charge reads, "that you, Ibrahim Abba and Isah Magaji on or about 14th day of January, 2019 at East West Road, Port Harcourt, Rivers State within the jurisdiction of this honourable court did conspire among yourselves to commit felony to wit: dealing in petroleum product without appropriate license and thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 2 (6) of the Miscellaneous Offences Act, Cap m17 of the Revised Edition (Laws of the Federation of Nigeria) Act 2007 and Punishable under Section 1 (17) of the same Act."
The defendants pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
In view of their no guilty plea, the prosecuting counsel, Tanko Iko prayed the court to fix a date for their trial and for the defendants to be remanded in prison custody.
Defense counsel, C.I Akpudi informed the court of an application for bail of his clients, which was opposed by the prosecuting counsel on the ground that he was served the application late and needed time to respond to it.
