The Governor of Osun State, Mr Gboyega Oyetola has directed the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Barr Femi Akande, and Ministry of Justice to discontinue with the trial of a Facebook user, Zirhid Akinloye, who is facing four count-charge, bordering on peddling of falsehood on the social media against the government.

We  further gathered that the state government has decided to stop the trial with immediate effect.

He will be released anytime before the commencement of the next round of the lockdown.
