A Lagos Magistrate, Olanike Olagbende, sitting at Igbosere, Lagos Island, on Wednesday ordered Adeboye Shonekan, the son of Chief Ernest Shonekan, former Interim Head of Federal Government, to appear in court.
Olagbende said a witness summons should be served on Shonekan following his absence in court at the hearing of a case of breach of peace he instituted against two men.

The accused denied the charge.
The magistrate granted them bail in the sum of N150,000 each with two sureties each in like sum.
