Naira Marley’s former lawyer, Taiwo Oreagba, has been convicted by Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo of the Ikeja High Court in Lagos, for soliciting a N4 million bribe
Oreagba formerly represented music star Naira Marley, real name Azeez Fashola in his ongoing prosecution by the EFCC for alleged internet fr@ud
The judge found Oreagba guilty based on a voice recording wherein she bragged that she would bribe EFCC officials to get a soft landing for her client, Kelechi Uka
Oreagba was sentenced to two years imprisonment for the offence. The judge, however, gave her an option of a N500,000 because she already restituted the N4 million
Justice Taiwo also discharged the legal practitioner on the second count of obtaìninng money by false pretence. She c@ndemned the convict’s boast of her ability to influence law enforcement officers and cases assigned to judges in the Lagos State Judiciary
