Embattled Nollywood actor, James Omiyinka a.k.a Baba Ijesha, has returned to acting movies amidst his ongoing trial for sexual assault of a minor.
Since April 22, when the Lagos State Police Command arrested him for allegedly sexually assaulting a 14-year-old foster daughter of a popular comedian, Princess, he has constantly made headlines.
He is facing a six-count charge of sexual assault by penetration, indecent treatment of a child, and sexual assault, which contravene sections 259, 135, and 261 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2011, as well as 135, 263, and 262 Criminal Law of Lagos State 2015.
Baba Ijesha had, however, employed the services of two senior advocates of Nigeria – Dada Awosika and Babatunde Ogala, and other lawyers to defend him in court in the last sittings.
The popular Yoruba actor appears to have forged ahead after his N2 million bail application was granted.
