May their souls rest in peace. We are carrying their legacy on. We think about them every day. From handling that and still working, still having to do what I have to do, going on tours, or doing the music recording.

Juggling the pandemic and also family matters, 2021 has been a crazy year. We just thank God we are here, we are strong”, he said.

“Life is fast, I have been doing this continuously since I was sixteen years old. Off course I have had to cry, not even about losing my friends alone. I cry about different situations. It comes and goes.

I cried on my birthday. I know how bad my grades were. In school, I was like the most unlikely to succeed type of student. My French teacher told me I won’t be anything in this life. I wont lie I was a bad kid with good intentions”.

Lagos govt closes case against Baba Ijesha

The Lagos State government on Wednesday closed its case against Nollywood actor, Olanrewaju James, aka Baba Ijesha, who is standing trial for alleged child molestation.

The state’s Director of Public Prosecution, Mrs. Olayinka Adeyemi, disclosed this after the cross-examination of the sixth prosecution witness by the defence team.

She said: “The prosecution has closed its case against the defendant.”

Following the DPP’s statement, the defence counsel, Kayode Olabiran, told the court the defendant would file a no-case submission.

Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo accepted the actor’s confessional statement to the police as evidence.

She ruled that there was no evidence before the court to prove that the defendant was tortured into making the statement to the police.

The judge said: “Sitting on the floor does not vitiate the confessional statement. The statement is found to be relevant and admissible.

“We will take the no-case submission in the New Year; the court is rounding up.”

The state government arraigned the Nollywood star on charges of indecent treatment of a child, defilement of a child, sexual assault by penetration, attempted sexual assault by penetration, and sexual assault.
