EmmBim:

Can't you read? It's not fake, they actually demanded for N10 m

This is a different court case altogether.

It Is Same Thing Na. This Is The Money Yoq Demanded Out Of Court Before. You Want It Now Through The Court. You Guys Made Us To Understand That People Donated Money For Litigations, Even Lawyers Volunteered To Give You Free Legal Services.

If the case is still under investigation,why is your Lawyers demanding money.

Stop the lies, she should pay her lawyers.


“Importantly, the N10m quoted by the media is the cost of the action carried out by her lawyers, to wit, litigation fee.

You need to be whipped. Every instituted case will have legal fee attached. It is different from compensation.

specter:



What's the basis for the cause of action and when did the cause of action arose and became actionable?
By the way, is the action not Statute barred assuming she has a genuine cause of action?

The emotional stress bullcrap is predicted on an alleged rape that has not been substantiated, how can she then prove her ancillary claims if the principal claim or if you wish , the arrowhead of her claim is dead?

Can you build something on nothing and expect it to stand?

But she will definitely need a dozen of medical experts and behavioural psychologist to prove her claims and the standard is quite an impossibility.

Ponder on that, as there are no cold hard evidence at this time, just stories and what happened, did happen, could have happened or didn't happen. These calls for speculations and drawing conjectures. The court is forbidden from embarking on a voyage of speculations or making conjectures.

To me, this is a face saving action that is nearly impossible to prove. Save the criminal allegation of rape suceeds. A smart lawyer will eat her alive on the stand, except perhaps it was arranged in such a way as to force or perhaps there is an arranged out of court settlement.

I say no more.

Damn this post shows you are a lawyer who knows his or her onions.

babyfaceafrica:
what is her gofundme account for?

In the legal system, it is normal for you to request the court for the opposing side to pay for the legal fees you have incurred, a lot of money are spent on legal fees not to talk of appearance fees and other miscellaneous fees. I'm not a fan of her and her husband, but she has done nothing wrong by asking for damages incurred.

Dumb ass tomato dike

You need to understand how things play here. Yes she will pay her lawyer; but a cost needs to be benchmarked. This is in part for the records, for an agreement with her lawyer and for the courts. The judges will decide and equitable rate at a point during the case, if Busola wins, then Biodun may be asked to bear the cost amongst other punishments.

Do you know if the gofundme money was enough? You guys should just chill and watch the whole thing play out instead of this fault finding game.

babyfaceafrica:
will her family members testimony hold water in court?

Ask me again. That one is not my business. I only mentioned that she said they were aware and her brother even confronted the man that year.

Of Course, this suit is a load of tosh;
It became Statute-barred after 2008 as six (6) years is the Limitation period for TORTS in the FCT and the Cause of Action arose in 2002.
Even the merits of the case is a non-starter. Busola made claims about how Fatoyinbo will drive her to deserted areas and have sex with her. So after allegedly raping her in her father’s house, she subsequently was voluntarily entering the car of her alleged rapist?
These people must have EMPTY BRAINS with the sort of ridiculous and half-baked stories they always come up with; don’t they realize Busola will be cross-examined?
She is crying of Emotional distress but she will have a complete mental breakdown by the time she enters the witness box and Fatoyinbo’s Lawyers tear her fake stories to shreds under cross-examination.
Meanwhile, I too will start preparing a case to sue Arsenal for causing me emotional distress in the defeat against Liverpool. Come to think of it, I will also sue INEC for causing me Emotional distress by allowing Buhari to win; Emotional distress ko, Emotional distaste, ni

It is common practice in the court system that an accused if found guilty can be made to pay litigation fees the accuser spent to execute the case in court. Nawa to you oo

lmao..till then!!

Dakolo family and stupidity are like northern and herdsmen , or southeasterner and spare parts or Southwesterner and meat selling...

You really have time to write trash

anonymous1759:





Please stop that Nonsense talk must everyone be on Buaola's side? I don't know or attend COZA but from the whole story I believe Busola had consensual sex not Rape how can someone rape you with a Doggy style without both of you concentrating? Any of my daughter's who open her legs at age 16 /17 without any influence or force I won't bother taking the case to court let's be realistic Busola enjoyed the Sex.

In the Olden days people get married at that age we're forming oyinbo no be only statutory Rape. To me rape is 0-13 yrs either way you do it forcefully or not it's rape at age. From 14 yrs some girls have started developing feelings even without force they indulge in sex willingly... That's why parents needs to Educate their children to be sensitive to men and where they're been touched. Some people will call me Rape apologist.

Many Nigerian pastors are nothing to write home about yet they've got everybody he'd by thebbalks, its unfortunate, I pray Busola remains strong even against online bullies and paid fake investigative journalist blogger

The case is in court, or will be put forward to the court. Therefore, an accuser, through her counsel or lawyers can explicitly demand at the setup of the court case that all legal fees she will expend on the case will be borne by the accused if the court finds the accused guilty. In lay man's terms, it means Busola Dakolo has paid her lawyers 10m or has reached an agreement of 10m with her lawyers as the cost of handling her case in court. And if Coza pastor is later judged guilty at the conclusion of the case, not only will he serve whatever punishment the judge gives but he will be required to also pay 10m litigation fees back to his accuser who won the case. You get it now?

It's a very smart move from the Dalokolos

babyfaceafrica:
same same,you are broke!!..if you are serious,you will pay to see the accused jailed!!!.. why do you want him to pay for legal/litigation fees?

Its a standard practice, i guess you have never been to court before

auntysimbiat:
WE BELIEVE U JARE... BUT 19YEARS AGO TOO FAR ABEG

In cases like this you will hit the accuse in the pocket

Man you are so daft.

liberalchick:
Okay so I just read the writ and the law suit is based on the 2002 rape not on the recent events. I am baffled, civil cases usually have a stat of limitation, it doesn’t seem like a viable law suit. Anyways, I guess we would’ve to wait and see if it gets tossed out because it has no legal bases.

The judge will only toss out the case if it’s a frivolous law suit not because there is no verdict in the criminal case but the judge can freeze the civil proceedings.

You'll be surprised that it won't be tossed out. If you haven't noticed, there's something about the woman 'Busola' seems she has grace following her. There are some people you don't fight because they'll always win, she's one of them

Save your speech, this case has not come this far to be dragged under the Carpet, there are certain people you don't fight with, Busola is one of them. KOZA should have settled this out of court but he chose this route, you sit back and watch things unfold, after all it's not your money, or is it?

Excuzeme:


Calm down Mr. Engineer...let us look at it from a legal perspective

Rape is a CRIMINAL OFFENCE and falls under the Criminal Code! The BURDEN OF PROOF is on the ACCUSER.

- There is a criminal case already filed with the Police, by the complainant and it is still under investigation.

- The Police have not yet charged the defendant (Pastor Prick) to court hence, he is assumed INNOCENT, until his guilt is proven in court

- Since he is innocent, the originating accusation (Rape) does not make room for compesation, UNLESS a GUILT is proven or t[b]he criminal aspect "determined" by a Court[/b]
- In line with the above, it is ONLY when a GUILT is PROVEN, that the complainant is entitled to any form of redress, wit Financial compensation, through a Civil Suit (While the accused who has now been proven guilty, will suffer Criminal Punishment like Jail time).

- For Busola Dakolo to now be "jumping the gun" by trying to get a MONETARY compensation, when "Criminal Guilt" is yet to even be established (and may or may not ever be established), indicates a few things:

1.) Her Lawyers have seen that her criminal case is leading nowhere (UNPROVABLE) and as such, want to entice the Pastor into a kind of "out of court settlement" (while ensuring they also get compensated for their own efforts).

2.) Circumstantial evidence (time of alleged rape, events they shared together after the time of the rape, her nursing his son even after the claimed rape, et.c) so far, are pointing to the fact that she was either a CONSENTING Adult to any sex that happened between them or she was outrightly making this up. Eitherway, it does not win you a rape case that happned over 20yrs ago.

3.) She is trying to trick the Pastor into making a "non legal" ADMISSION of the CRIME of RAPE (non legal but still effective and can be used as corroborative evidence of partial acceptance of guilt......but l am sure the Pastor wont be that stupid to even consider it otherwise he will end up in jail so fast, even if he did not rape Dakolo wife).

4.) She is hoping that a Civil Suit can be brought before a "compliant, female Judge" (The sort of Judges that think every man accused of rape is guilty "as accused", even without proof and should be punished!
Dem full abroad well, well, especially when the accused person, according to Hillary Clinton, "is one of those Black Savage Men". Now you know one of the reasons she lost to Trump, she was a former State Attorney when she made that statement!).
Now, once the CIVIL COURT Judge approves financial compensation (which can be done by fiat), that event would have "a bearing" on the criminal case where evidence is not readilly available (You can trust that our Police cant do any magic, for an alleged sex that happened 20yrs or so ago and was never reported to a Doctor or any police!) and the Judge OF THE CRIMINAL COURT is relying of a "PROBABILITY OF GUILT", IN MAKING A FINAL DECISION!

But l think Women need to re-evalute this idea of making sure that ALL EVIDENCE has disappeared (so that it becomes my-word-against-your-word and as a female, l should be believed!), before reporting rape, not minding whether you intend to prosecute or not.
Judges even in advance countries are beginning to realise that afterall, Women are also HUMANS are are not immuned to VINDICTIVENESS, when it comes to making a false but life-altering allegation like rape.
I hate rapist but l hate even more, women who try to use it falsely, just to ruined another man's life, out of sheer malice.
Reporting rapoe immediately it happnes, is very crucial because evidence will abound, l also understand that it will make false allegations very obvious


BTW: Your OJ Simpson example does not apply here. Reason?
MURDER has various "degress" (1st, 2nd, 3rd) and other "grades" (Mansluaghter with no malicious intent as in running someover in a car accident, self defence deaths, death by misadventure, e.t.c). Also, MURDER presupposes the existence od a DEAD BODY (the first evidence required to prove a murder case)!
So, he might have a "and indirect link to the death of the victim but not be the "murderer" of the victim. Such compensation is usually wrung out of rich people, to provide closure for the "expectant" family of the dead victim (they are usually poorer than the person they are accusing ).

But for RAPE, it is a Guilty or NOT Guilty situation. There is no half way or degrees. Even if you entered 'halfway' or is just suck breast small, it is still rape but if you did not, you are just not guilty of rape.
Once you are declared NOT GUILTY of Rape, it is you the accused that will file a Civil Suit for wrongful Accusation, defamation, e.t.c to your good name, loss of income for the time of investiagtion and prosecution, legal fees, etc. Not the person who ACCUSED YOU but could not prove their ACCUSATION (now termed a malicious or wrongful accusation).

Busola Dakolo and her husband better watch it or they could be in for a very hard time, when that time comes (but l suspect that as Nigerians, someone will call Pastor and interprete the whole thing as the work of the Devil, since Maaga nor pay again! )

OK

Man you are so daft.
