Uche Igwe, also known as Darksam on Metro FM, was yesterday re-arraigned before a Yaba Chief Magistrates’ court for allegedly sharing the sex video of a Chrisland School pupil.
The police had in May arraigned the 40-year-old broadcaster on a two-count charge of cyberstalking and breach of peace.
Trial Chief Magistrate, Adeola Adedayo admitted the defendant to bail in the sum of N10 million with three sureties in like sum.
During resumed proceedings yesterday, the State through its counsel, Omolola Saliu, re-arraigned the defendant on a fresh one-count charge.
The defendant again pleaded not guilty.
In the amended charge, the defendant was accused of distributing, via his Twitter handle, on April 18, the sex video of some Chrisland School pupils who were in Dubai for a World Schools Games.
The offence is said to be contrary to Section 23(2) of the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency Law, 2021.
