Popular Yoruba Actor Olanrewaju James well-identified as Baba Ijesha has come out to say that former Chairman of Ikeja Branch of Nigerian Bar Association, Mr. Adeshina Ogunlana is not his lawyer.
In a replica of the disclaimer, Baba Ijesha mentioned that he by no means disclosed Ogunlana was his authorized representative. He mentioned that he by no means instructed the lawyer to behave on his behalf in his trial moments.
“I want to state categorically and emphatically that I’ve by no means briefed the lawyer nor instructed him to behave on my behalf in any way, or manner howsoever and in any respect.
“He (Ogunlana) is not my lawyer, and whatever you heard or hear from him regarding my legal professionals, the police or courtroom case doesn’t signify the true place. He has been performing with out my information or consent,” he mentioned.
In response to Baba Ijesha, the police by no means demanded cash from him for bail which was granted to him by the Justice of the Peace as lawyer Ogunlana disclosed publicly.
“That is apart from the N500,000 refundable bail bond which fashioned a part of my bail situations ordered by the courtroom. The bail bond is payable to the courtroom registry’s account and never the police account,” he mentioned.”
