Nollywood actor, Adeniyi Johnson, has pleaded with the Nigerian police and other agencies involved to temper justice with mercy in the case of popular Ibadan-based skit maker, Trinity Guy.
Recall that the Instagram content creator, known for his extreme pranks, was summoned by the Oyo State Police a few days ago over a disturbing skit in which he sexualized a minor.
He honored the police invitation and was arraigned before a family court sitting at Iyaganku, Ibadan, on Monday, June 26.
In her ruling, Magistrate Mrs. P.O. Adetuyibi ordered that the skit maker be remanded in the Agodi Correctional Facility in Ibadan until July 11, when the case will come up for mention.
Reacting, Adeniyi Johnson, via his Instagram page, pleaded with the Nigerian Police Force and all agencies involved to temper justice with mercy.
He acknowledged that what the skit maker did was wrong but noted that he had learned his lesson.
“Dear Nigerian police force and every other related agencies!!! many of us agree that our brother did what is wrong and absurd!! All I am pleading for is to TEMPER JUSTICE WITH MERCY. please @iamtrinityguy is a young man looking for what to eat legally but he incidentally fell on the wrong side of the law!!! Please be merciful as I know he has learnt already @nigerianpoliceforce.” He wrote.
