the fact still remains that, the case is between ibinabo and the government, even if 1000+ eyewitnesses come out it won't make any difference

Its quite unfortunate. I have actually been one of the hater's of the Ibinabo's story. But i am now having a full re-think. Healing, healing and healing is what we ask. Sentencing Ibinabo, will be fine to show how SUPREME OUR LAW is, but for God's sake, the Doctors family should please forgive her and withdraw this case.

The case is between Lagos State Government and Ibinabo. The Giwas have nothing to do with the case, it is a criminal case instituted by LASG and the Giwas are just interested parties.

This Messur De Gaulle account is hard to believe. You mean they did not deem it fit to use his eye witness account to help her even after meeting Ibinabor four years ago in Portharcourt?

If this account is true, then Ibinabor and her team have been careless in handling the case.

Only God is all-knowing!


This eye witness account is watery and will not stand. First off " but we heard a loud crash and then I think the doctors car somersaulted while the other car driven by Ibinabo was flung a few metres to the other side.".......this statement strikes him out of being a primary witness. Heard a loud crash is different from being at the spot to give an eye witness account. Secondly is his statement consistent with what the Police and VIO's report says? He can't even be a witness anymore beyond the "sentimental witness" Novia is trying to make him. The case is now in Supreme Court and you can amend your defense or call new witnesses aside from those you had called in the lower courts.

I also wonder why Novia and his team are trying so hard to "force reconciliation". The family is hurting and this frontal approach to "expand" the truth will be counter productive. Has Novia sought to explain, if Ibinabo debunks the Dr's sister's allegation that she asked Ibinabo to issue a public apology which she refused to do. Why all the public sentiments after over 10years

It's a super story!
Remember, we are pencils in the hand of the creator.
These guys are good story writers and actors.
Unfortunately, we are not gullible readers and audience .
It's a nice fiction , a pretty figment of the writer's imagination.
In other news, Ibinabo, go and serve your 5 years jail term, and leave story.
After that, Charles Novia may now initiate the peace move between the two families.

The story is bull. You mean your legal team let you risk imprisonment, when you have someone who can testify, an eye witness for that matter?
Putting my self in the shoes of both family, i don't blame the doctor's at all.
She's trying so hard not be an exconvict, and doesn't want to loose her post as president of AGN.

The issue is not whether she's remorseful or not. It has to do with reckless driving and the specific driver at fault. Now from the eye witness' account, she left her lane and even crossed the road partition slab to hit a vehicle moving in the opposite direction. I think she was reckless and obviously guilty.

Regarding the court case, it's between ibinabo and lagos state government and not between ibinabo and giwa. So, stop painting the giwas as if they are wicked and out for revenge

You mean in accident situation, the person less impacted will be the first to leave the scene? If Ibinabo was in coma as claimed, it was so convenient to huddle a comatose person into a taxi and ferry to the hospital, yet a confirmed dead person was still at the site?

Mr. Novia, I must tell you that it doesn't matter whether Ibinabo is a beautiful soul or a she devil. What matters is that she broke the law. Plain and simple, and she must face the music.

All this unnecessary sentiment will not help. She was sentenced to 5 years in prison, not life in prison. I wonder what this sentiment, sorry statement will accomplish.


Isn't it funny this story came out after the judgement was unfavourable for her

Hmmmm...... maybe she ran away, or maybe she did not. But the eyewitness said she was unconscious, I think the best way to know if she ran away or was really rushed to the hospital is to go to the said hospital and check their records.

From there we can begin to sense the truth.

Yes, indeed it is. But who knows, they might be willing to present the case of "the good samaritan" in her appeal case when it comes up at the Supreme Court.

The wiles and gimmicks of our celebrities are ever becoming too predictable for any discerning mind.

Even the Charles Novia who is preaching reconciliation and healing, I wonder what he will do, if it had been his own son who was run-down and killed in an accident.

Dindt you read the article ni? "That evening, what happened was that the Doctor’s car was coming from the Victoria Island axis of the first Lekki Roundabout which leads into the Lekki Phase One Estate, while another SUV which was being driven by Ibinabo was coming out from the estate, if I remember correctly. I cannot tell who was speeding or what but we heard a loud crash and then I think the doctors car somersaulted while the other car driven by Ibinabo was flung a few metres to the other side. "

..to me this is double jeopardy, you can't try someone for the same crime TWICE but as usual in Nigeria anything goes especially if you step on some corrupt toes. Heard the Doctor was Tinubu's mother Doctor, apparent her affiliation to GEJ during his campaign sparked some nasty feelings and the case was reopened. Normal APC witch hunting rubbish!! The only crime I think Ibinabo committed is staying alive. Area boys dragging someone out from a crushed car wasn't a smart thing to do at all. Ibinabo's Dad is a renowned and well recognised doctor too, Dr Tunde Fiberesima. So make we hear word. An accident happened, one person survived the other died..why should the person alive be punished?
Re: Eye Witness Account Of Ibinabo Fiberisima’s Accident - Charles Novia by bee444: 1:26pm On Mar 18, 2016
This eyewitness account has many loop holes. He does'nt know what he's talking about. Mr Guelle has many questions to answer

Facts of matter..

* Many witnesses but only Mr Guelle saw Ibinabo.
* He stopped a cab for them while others were still trying to help the deceased and no one saw him doing this.
* He never asked which hospital the cab man was taking them to.
* He heard the crowd saying they were going to hurt Ibinabo, yet the crowd never moved to where Ibinabo car was to carry out their threat.
*Mr Guelle should have known that Ibinabo was at fault since the other eyewitnesses were very upset with Ibinabo.
* Mr Guelle should be charged with accessory to murder having known that Ibinabo just killed someone but still allowed her to escape.
* Mr Guelle or whatever his name is should be charged with aiding and abetting and conspiracy for failing to disclose an accident leading to death.
* His account of the accident should be disregarded since it took him 10 years to come forward...witness tampering should be considered.
* He only came forward to protect a celebrity having no regard to the life lost.
* Mr Gualle is a liar. He did not see the accident but the aftermath. He should therefore never be allowed to testify.
* Other eyewitnesses account were totally different from Mr Gualle's account. No one colloborated the account of Mr Gualle.

Final thought..

Mr Gualle' account of the night of event should be discredited. No one colloborated his account. Ofcourse so many witnesses saw accident but only Mr Gualle account differ.

Naija can be better, if your likes sit-down and think before drawing your inferences. So doctor would have been reckless and his car became a magnet, making ibinabo's SUV skid and jump over the lane demarcation into his own lane.

This is not double jeopardy. She is not being tried twice. She was tried by the magistrate court and found guilty. The only thing being contested is the quantum of the sentence given by the magistrate court. No new witnesses were called from the High Court to the Appeal court and none will be called at the Supreme court. The only issue in contention is whether the magistrate had the right to give an option of fine in a manslaughter case.

On the issue of it being an accident, the collapsed building in Lekki was an accident too. So no one should be arrested for it.

The facts here now are:
1) Mr. De Gaul "surname withheld", did you remove the number plate?
2) if you did not, who removed the number plate?
3) Also from your "script" Mr. Novia, you are trying to let us see the possibility of the late Doctor been the one that was drunk (haba Novia, nah so u no fear God reach?).Anyway, fact
4) From your script again, you are trying to let us believe that Ibinabo was going to be attacked! Otherwise, pls let your Mr. Eyewitness tell how he was the only that heard the threat on Ibinabo. (For Lagos! who go dey tell u that one? before you can say Jack Robinson you don dey receive slaps and beating; they would have dragged you out of the "Daniel Wilson no plate"car and deal with you well - well...

Please, I have better things doing than making a list of the obvious.

But before I go, Mr. Novia, have ever lost any loved one? May you never do especially to motor accident - whether as a result of drunk driver or not.

Why? She is not being sentenced to death. If it was so I would have prayed for a pardon also. But 5 year imprisonment is not too much to pay if it has been established that she was the primary cause of the death of someone else.

Why didnt the "eye witness" testify during the trial, or were Ibinabo's lawyers not aware of this eye witness?

These people keep complicating matters for her

first she was not reckless

second she was in a coma

Next thing she was unconscious for a day

The police would have established that before the case went to court. If she had gone ahead to make a report at the police station knowing fully well that the other party involved died in the incident, that would have made it more credible than for VIO to trace the owner to her through the VIN.......

This so-called 'Mr De Gaulle', is a figment of Charles Novia's imagination. Probably, he culled the name 'De Gulle' from the 'Charles De Gulle' Airport in Paris.
What he intends to achieve with this rooster n bull story, is still unknown to all. Why draw unnecessary sympathy for your colleague,at the expense of a grieving family?

Was he trying to accuse people helping d victim as dones dat killed d man? No no d accident if dint happeen d man will not be in pains d man will not be under his car d man will not die. Even if IB was not drunk there are other reasons to cause accident that's why she was charged with man slaughter.


I think the eye witnessed did the right thing. I agree with Charles Novia that Journalism have lost its true strength.

Investigative journalists should investigate this properly.

First thing, it did not happen in the night, as reported that Ibinabo drove the car drunk from a club. The late Doctor came from an even with his other colleagues. Definitely it was not a late night meeting.

The doctor who treated Ibinabo should answer if she was unconscious when she arrived the scene.

Her sister in the car with her should also give her side of the story.

If the eye witnessed saved her life and she was not drunk or coming from a club then Ibinabo's jail sentence is unfair.

May God give Doctor Giwa's family the strength to bear the loss.

If Ibinabo is innocent, I hope God gives her a way outto of this mess.
