He added that the offence contravened sections 383 and 390 (10A) of the Criminal Code, Laws of Osun, 2002.
The defendant, who was not legally represented pleaded not guilty to the one-count charge of stealing.
Magistrate Olukunle Owolawi did not grant bail to the defendant but asked him to come with a formal application for the consideration of his bail.
Owolawi, therefore, ordered the remand of the defendant in Ile-Ife prison custody.
The case was adjourned until July 16, for hearing.
