The court released him on bail but he could not appear in court on the day when he was to attend court because he was sick.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo he was picked up and detained since then, about four or five months ago. And he was not brought to court since then but abandoned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt least, he should have been given a second chance. How could he have got money to repay those involved in the land deals if he was kept in prison? The judge was approached and begged to release him on bail with some sureties to stand for him but all to no avail.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, on Friday, we learnt he was rushed to hospital. Some said he died on the way to hospital while some others said that he died while receiving treatment. His health condition was not fine before his death and the judge knew about it,\u201d the relative said.<\/p>\n<p>In his reaction, the spokesman of the correctional facility in the state, Phillip Adegbulugbe, confirmed the death of the land agent, saying that he died in hospital of illness related to kidney problems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was taken to General hospital, Ilorin where he died. I saw his hospital file stating the illness. He was taken to hospital on Thursday evening and reportedly died at about 8:00 am today, Friday. He didn\u2019t die in the facility as some people were saying. I was just coming back from the hospital,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Land agent dies in detention at Ilorin correctional facility<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 63-year-old land agent detained at the Oke Kura Correctional Facility, Ilorin, Kwara State capital, for over four months reportedly&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":31436,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15122,3269,384,15],"tags":[3123,3125,3271,387,180],"class_list":["post-31435","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-correctional-facility","category-ilorin","category-metro","category-news","tag-correctional","tag-facility","tag-ilorin","tag-metro","tag-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.9 -
