An Osun State monarch, has been arrested and arraigned in an Osun State Magistrate Court for allegedly raping a corps member.
The royal father, who was arrested on March 28 was said to have forcefully had sex with the 23-years-old corps member at his Osogbo residence on March 25.
The monarch appeared before Magistrate Olalekan Ijiyode on March 30. Curiously, the magistrate was said to have instructed that the court proceedings should not be made public. Efforts to get documents pertaining to the matter were rebuffed by court officials, who directed all enquiries to the presiding magistrate.

It was gathered that the king allegedly lured the corps member to Osogbo after helping him to take inventory of his subjects and prospective trainees for a proposed computer training programme to be organized by the king. Speaking on the incident, yesterday, Osun State Coordinator of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Mr. Etim Enyenihi, condemned the incident, describing it as “very shameful.”
He stated that the Director-General of the NYSC, Brigadier-General Maharazu Tsiga had been briefed on the incident and had vowed to ensure that the king faced the full weight of the law.
