The court also directed police to complete their investigation into an alleged attack on a police officer within 48 hours.
S. A. Adebese, the police prosecutor, had asked the court to remand the defendant for 21 days.
The three weeks, according to the Counsel, would give the Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to draft legal counsel.
However, in his argument, defence lawyer Femi Falana, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), contested the petition.
Falana pleaded with the court not to remand his client, saying he was unaware of any such application.
The son of the legendary Fela Kuti was arrested for slapping an officer after his vehicle was stopped on Third Mainland Bridge
