Saw it coming. The moment this man became the lead counsel to Tompolo, I lost considerable respect for him.

...But must FG and EFCC use counter-cases and unverified charges as a tool to intimidate opponents?

As far as I am concerned, there was no saint in the last administration.

It's the norm all over world, if you come against the Govt, you better make sure your cupboard is clean. You can't have skeletons and be raging against the Sheriff.

If the man is a witch, let him be hunted, we need to reduce the number of witches in Nigeria

The plot is to silence every opposition.

Unfortunately the illiterate zombies have continue to cheer on this impunity by Buhari.

At the time dollar sells for 500 naira, fuel sells at 150 official price and when tough hardship hits their doorsteps .... there would be no voice to speak cos the zombies would have cheered the dictator FG on to silencing the voices of reason.

Come 2019.... there would be no opposition. And even if Nigeria is abyss by 2019.... Buhari would continue to in power with the herd of corrupt officials.

Guess who losses in all these. .... the masses/ the zombies

Biased Bigot try and be more objective in your arguement have you asked yourself this question did he collect the 61 million Naira or not?

No wonder he keeps attacking the president on every matter, he's just another corrupt scumbag in the legal profession. EFCC should prosecute him diligently and ensure that he's imprisoned. The judiciary must be cleared of all corrupt practitioners.

And you are sure he committed what the EFCC is alleging, right? And to you, he is a corrupt scum bag, because he demands for legal due process and respect for the civil rights of the accused?

my God! I recognise dis man, he was invited as a guest on TVC channel, to speak about "how to tackle corruption in nigeria". so he is a scammer also?

mustfaith:
confirmed scumbag!!!
this man scammed my friend sometime back.
he's a total fraudster and looters ass kisser

Idiot give us the details,dont write anything without evidence

The propaganda tool is working very well,every one speaking against the government is corrupt,Tinubu and others re saint.If DSS need tompolo they should just ask for help instead of telling us lies everytime. When they start arresting you for buying car,you will know we don enter one chance

l will wait to hear the other side of story because EFCC guys self na corruption raise to power two

Ebun has sold his conscience for the pecuniary. Where are the virtues you stood for in the days in Ife? You are the one now defending the so-called corrupt people in the nation. This is a big shame.

Now we understand why he kept dancing when others have since stopped and returned to their houses. . AS

Ds was jus an opprtunity for apc,efcc ,lagos state gvt,fashola ,tinubu and d fed gvt to show him the other side of d law since he has been in d lime light for defending d people against d toll fare.
He should be learned enough to knw if a property is under forfieture by Lagos state gvt .
I don't blv in ds judiciary and efcc,na only bark dey cab bite.

ADEGBORUWA HAS NO FRAUD CASE

In or around May 2013, our law firm was approached by one Mrs. Sylvia Udeagbala, to represent her husband in a criminal case. In our first appearance in court, it transpired that the complainant in the case, Chief Leonard Okafor and the Defendant, Mr. Jonathan Udeagbala, were from the same town. It was thus decided to settle the case amicably out of court, and the court and the prosecutor were so informed.

THE TRUE FACTS

Mr. Jonathan Udeagbala owns a 5 bedroom duplex in Nicon Town Estate in the Lekki area of Lagos. He had a business agreement with Chief Leonard Okafor, for telecommunications. The business didn’t go as planned, so Chief Okafor demanded a refund of his investments, which caused Mr. Udeagbala to issue several cheques, which were alleged to have bounced, hence a criminal charge was filed against him in court, in Charge No. LCD/129/2012.

Upon the intervention of our law firm, several peace meetings were held with the complainant in the case, Chief Okafor, and it was agreed that Mr. Udeagbala’s house in Nicon Town should be sold or leased to offset the money outstanding in favour of Chief Okafor. Mrs. Udeagbala then secured a tenant, Shelf Drilling Co Ltd, for a five year long lease of about Eleven Million Naira per annum. This was disclosed to Chief Okafor and it was agreed by the parties that the proceed of the lease be used to offset part of the money being claimed by Chief Okafor, as follows:
1. Chief Okafor – N35million
2. Mr. Udeagbala – N12million
3. Renovation of the house by the contractor chosen by the tenant – N8million
4. Fee paid to the agent – N2.5million
5. Legal fee paid to our office – N2.5million

The above sums were by agreement of all the parties duly disbursed, with documentary evidence of collection. When EFCC got to know that the said property had been let out to Shelf Drilling for five years at the rate of N10million per annum, they told Shelf Drilling that the earlier money paid had been forfeited. EFCC then asked Shelf Drilling to pay N12million per annum. A sum of N24million has so far been collected by EFCC. In fact, we are informed that as at yesterday, 10th May, 2016, EFCC served the tenant another invoice for rent for 2016.

Part of the terms of settlement was that Chief Okafor will withdraw his petition and criminal complaint to the EFCC which he did through a letter of withdrawal written by his lawyers Atuegwu Egwuatu & Associates dated 19th August, 2013, and which was received by the EFCC on 17th September, 2013.

Consequent upon the withdrawal, the criminal charge was dismissed by the High Court on 17th December, 2015, in a well considered ruling delivered by Hon. Justice D.O. Oluwayemi and the EFCC is aware of this.

At all material times, our law firm was not aware of any interim order of attachment obtained by the EFCC on the property. With the ruling of Hon. Justice D.O. Oluwayemi which has dismissed the main criminal charge, there can be no subsisting order of attachment as something cannot be placed on nothing and be expected to stand.

HIS PERSECUTION

The above transaction took place ever before the Gen. Buhari administration. Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa Esq., has been receiving unofficial complaints from the EFCC, about his opposition to the Buhari administration and has ever been threatened with the above dead case. But the threats became more rampant upon his brief in the case of Chief Government Ekpemupolo (Tompolo) and especially Mr. Azibaola Robert, cousin of former President Goodluck Jonathan. On May 4, 2016, our firm appeared in Tompolo’s case at the Federal High Court, Lagos and May 4, 2016, our firm filed a suit in court, for the release of Jonathan’s cousin. On May 5, 2016, EFCC filed a case against Mr. Adegboruwa. So, there is no fraud case against Mr. Adegboruwa. He is being persecuted for speaking against the Buhari regime. There is no way a criminal case can be maintained against Mr. Adegboruwa as the criminal case upon which the case is based has been dismissed. Mr. Adegboruwa did not collect money for any property but acted as a mediator for settlement and he acted upon the lawful instructions of his client.

Let all the 'quick to judge' come and read the truth.
I know you personally, Pastor Adegboruwa and know you cannot partake in scam or fraud
You are a legal practitioner and anyone, I mean anyone can demand your legal representation
Let them go to court, they can only be disgraced there. the truth cannot be subsided, this is what our democracy has been reduced to.
Our institution has become war tools in the hands of the executive. When did EFCC become Estate Agent? Collecting 24m for what?
