Ever since the judgement, various celebrities including the Ibinabo’s first
son have come out to call for prayers for the embattled actress while some fans
stylishly questioned the ruling of the court.

In reaction to these, the sister of the late Dr Giwa, Biola Giwa-Adeyemi in
an open letter has shed more light on the case between Ibinabo Fiberersima Vs
Lagos State. Read what she sent in below…
an open letter has shed more light on the case between Ibinabo Fiberersima Vs
Lagos State. Read what she sent in below…
First of all, the case was between Lagos state Government Vs Ibinabo
Febresima but not Giwa Vs Ibinabo Febresima. On this faithful day of Feb 26th
2006 along the Lekki Epe Express way, my late brother Dr Giwa was driving with
his brother and another family friend in his car coming from a meeting in Ajah,
they were held up in a traffic around the evening time, when this tragic
accident happened.

they were held up in a traffic around the evening time, when this tragic
accident happened.
Ibinabo was driving towards
Lekki while the late Dr Giwa was coming from the other direction facing towards
Island, just by shop-rite, when ibinabo’s jeep flipped and lost control from
her lane jumped over the culvert or pavement
that demarcate the road from the on coming vehicle. The speed that
skipped and flipped a jeep over the road
demarcation will be considered “Reckless and Endangerment” because the VIO dept
checked the jeep brakes, the engine and all the mechanical and electrical of
the jeep but the result shows nothing wrong with the jeep and confirm that the
accident as due to “OVER SPEEDING” in which the result was on record.

After the accident, Ibinabo
left the scene of the accident without checking for any survivors, she took the
license plate and registration out of the car and fled from the scene, that was
considered “HIT AND RUN”. The people at the scene of the accident recognized
her as Ibinabo Febresima, and stated she was drunk.”Driving Under Influence” of
whatever she had. The State Department of Transportation has to use the VIN
number to locate the Owner of the jeep, in which the owner was Daniel Wilson.
That was my very first time of hearing the name of Ibinabo Febresima.The Doctor
died at the scene of the accident because the jeep was on top of the Honda
accord driven by him and they couldn’t save him on time because of the seat
belt and the weight of the jeep, the brother and the other family friend in
that car had survived. Did she know the state of mind and the emotional
instability of the people involved in that accident up till now, Ibinabo has
never been in a Comma.

After all the evidences
against her, with the result of the VIO by the State department of
Transportation, The DPP office took over and charged her to court and she hired
Festus Kiamo in which after reviewing the case he withdrew by saying he cannot
represent her because it’s a bad case.

Doctor Giwa has a living
mother for goodness sake, wife with 3 children’s, Ibinabo deprived him from
seeing his children graduate from university and getting married, also from
being the one to bury his mother at her old age, “Whereas no one ever prayed
that on the day of their children’s success and happiness they should replaced
them with someone else”.

Ibinabo was never
remorseful, they brought her to meet with me shortly after my brother’s death
in GRA Ikeja before my return back to the USA, but her only concern then was to
drop the charges against her. I told her that it’s not my family Vs her but the
State Vs her, that where I come from in USA that we do not interfere with the
justice system, that they should do their job and advise her to apologize
publicly to the masses and to the family and throw herself to the mercy of the
court. She said and l quote “I CAN’T DO THAT, BECAUSE IS GOING TO DAMAGE MY
CAREER” what an ego, she cannot apologize publicly, I feel like kicking her
ass. She’s worried about her stupid career, What happened to the career of the
Doctor, who happened to be a ‘MEDICAL DIRECTOR AND THE HEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT
OF PHYSICAL REHABILITATION MEDICINE AT GENERAL HOSPITAL LAGOS.

People say there is no
justice in Nigeria, but it does once in awhile. The lower court magistrate O.A
Isaac found her guilty with the option of 100,000.00 Naira, which is considered
a judicial recklessness, 100k does not even buy an iPad, the life of someone
does not worth more that 100k, so that people will take the liberty of
committing crimes. Later Justice Deborah
Oluwayemi of the High court find her guilty and overturn the option of fine and
gave her 5 yrs in prison, she spent 3 weeks and came out on bail to go to Court
of Appeal, however, how can a convicted person came out on bail, here in USA
you will be in jail and they will transport you to and from each time you have
an hearing. Finally Appeal court found her guilty and sentence her to 5 years
imprisoned.

Let her face the wrath, it
is said that you can run but can’t hide, it’s a law of Kama that catch up, This
will serve as a deterrent to others. Who will believe after 10yrs she will
still be slammed, The Family of the late Dr Giwa had moved on with our life’s,
She was forgiven, it was very difficult and painful, but God gave us especially
his mother and children the fortitude to bear the loss.
