Kehinde Oke, a 20-year-old man, has been remanded in prison for allegedly raping a 55-year-old woman and robbing a man of his valuables, TopNaija reports.

Oke was taken before an Ado Ekiti Chief Magistrate’s Court by the police in Ekiti State on two counts of rape and robbery.

The police prosecutor, Inspector Caleb Leramo, told the court on Friday that the defendant allegedly went to the residence of one Professor Michael Ige at night, stole his laptop, phones and vandalised his cars, all valued at N1m.

The prosecutor alleged that “the defendant committed the offence on or about December 22, 2019, at Emure-Ekiti in Ekiti State”.

Leramo alleged that “after the robbery, the defendant went to rape a 55-year-old woman.”

“The defendant was recently arrested for another case of robbery and some of the properties of the professor were found in his custody during investigations,” he added.
