Following the ongoing trial of an embattled Actor, Olanrewaju Omiyinka popularly known as Baba Ijesha, some friends and fans have created a GoFundMe account to cover his legal fee as his trial continues in court.

Recall that the actor was arrested by the police in April for alleged sexual assault of the 14-year-old foster daughter of comedienne, Princess.

The fundraiser Olatunde Matti who resides in Dublin, Ireland titled the post, ‘Help Olanrewaju Omiyinka with Legal Costs’. While the target of the fundraiser is €50,000, they have so far raised €2000 (about N9.7 million) since the account was opened just about nine hours ago.

Stating reasons for organising in his post the fundraiser for the distressed actor, Matti said, “Hi, my name is Oladele Matti and I am fundraising for Olanrewaju Omiyinka aka Baba Ijesha Legal Costs. A gesture of support/Goodwill/Solidarity to assist with the legal costs of a complicated and lengthy process that will likely offer the best chance of successfully obtaining fairness and justice.

He continued: “Olanrewaju Omiyinka, aka Baba Ijesha, is a popular actor/comedian that was charged to court on the 24th of June, 2021 after spending over two months in police custody without bail. An act, which breached his fundamental human rights. In view of the above, we, Olarenwaju Omiyinka aka Baba Ijesha’s friends, fans, and supporters have started this GoFundMe campaign to give a helping hand to raise funds to pay for his legal expenses. Thank you for your love and support!”
