YOU ARE BIAS ON MY TRIAL, BILLIONAIRE KIDNAPPER, EVANS ACCUSES JUDGE

“On the Evans’ matter, the cases filed against him are ongoing in court.The issue is that the lawyer representing him is trying to play some games to delay the matter but in all his games, we have been defeating him in court’, Kazeem told journalists.

The Attorney-General while assuring the public that the suspect will not escape justice, said, “the issue is that the lawyer representing him is trying to play some games to delay the matter but in all his games, we have been defeating him in court.”

But Ogungbeje in response to the Attorney-General’s claims, accused him of attempting to prejudice a pending criminal proceeding by commenting on it at a press conference ,and also declared that he was not stalling the trial of his client by filing notices of appeal at the Appeal Court.

The lawyer added further that one of his appeals against a death sentence handed to one of his clients, Sulaimon Olalekan, by a Lagos judge was quashed by the appellate court,stating thus,“It must be noted that it was an appeal fought at the Court of Appeal, Lagos, between Evans defence counsel and the Attorney-General of Lagos State was defeated by Olukoya Ogungbeje.

“From the foregoing as seen in the Sulaimon’s appeal case, the Hon Attorney-General of Lagos State should have known that Evans’ defence train led by Olukoya Ogungbeje Esq is not here to eat ‘Banku’ as far as Evans ongoing criminal charges are concerned’.

“We hereby call on the Hon Attorney-General of Lagos State to put his house and art in order in the diligent prosecution of Evans based on legal evidence, rather than misinforming the public, attacking Evans defence counsel and prejudicing the ongoing criminal cases before the courts”,he emphasised
