Human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, has moved to represent Prince Adeniyi Adeyemi in court following criminal charges filed against him by the Federal Government over alleged forgery, conspiracy, impersonation and the use of fake presidential documents.
Adeyemi, who recently made explosive allegations against Femi Gbajabiamila, is facing an eight-count charge before the Federal High Court in Abuja.
His case has attracted national attention due to the corruption claims he made against one of President Bola Tinubu’s closest aides.
Sources familiar with the matter confirmed to POLITICS NIGERIA on Wednesday that Falana (SAN) will lead Adeyemi’s legal defence as the court process begins.
The controversy began after Adeyemi publicly accused Gbajabiamila of demanding huge sums of money in exchange for facilitating his appointment into a government position.
According to Adeyemi, the Chief of Staff allegedly requested N400 million upfront and another N200 million balance to secure his appointment as head of a federal agency.
