A Fake Lawyer With no Aorta Of legal training Who Had won Cases up To The supreme court... Is A Genius.
Adogun was petitioned by the NBA Branch in Ilorin has been arrested and incacerated.
What would happen to the cases he had won? I basically do not think remanding him in prison was the best to do. Nigeria needs a brain like this man. Am not in support of what he did, a mild punishment here and there would do.
If his cases are reviewed and there had been no wrong convictions, or injustice met while he practiced as a lawyer, such a person should not be incarcerated. A man who never had legal training, Peter Adogun, has practiced law in
Ilorin for 10 solid years and won cases in the Supreme Court of Nigeria is a genius.
The police in Kwara State arraigned Mr. Adogun before an Ilorin
magistrate’s court for certificate and identity theft in the state
capital.
According to the First Information Report, Mr. Adogun has been
practising as in Ilorin and its environs since 2007 with the name
“Barrister I. T. David.”
He was arrested, following a petition written to the police on behalf of
the Ilorin branch of the Nigerian Bar Association by its legal adviser,
Oyetunji Ojuokaiye.
Apart from appearing in local courts, investigation revealed that he had
also appeared in a number of cases in the Supreme Court.
Police prosecutor, Nasir Yusuf, said “The suspect jumped police
administrative bail after being arrested while appearing before an Area
Court in Ilorin. He was, however, rearrested on the roof top of his
house on January 7.
“It was discovered that the accused had falsely taken the credentials of
one Inufin David Taiwo, an Abuja-based lawyer, under the guise of
helping him to secure job in an oil company, only to come to Ilorin and
start practising as a lawyer with the photocopies.
“It was revealed that the suspect has practised as a legal practitioner
and appeared in several matters at all levels of Nigerian courts, up to
the Supreme Court, winning several cases in the process.
“Found in his possession at the point of arrest included complete legal
practitioner’s robe, legal books, complimentary cards, copies of legal
processes filed in several courts and other incriminating items relating
to his fraudulent legal practice.
“The owner of the certificates, who claimed to know the suspect, said
that Adogun was a client at the office where he observed the mandatory
one-year National Youth Service Corps.”
In her ruling, Magistrate I.O Olawoyin, remanded the accused in Mandala Medium Prison and adjourned the case till February 1.
