Court of Appeal Grants Bail To Actress Ibinabo Fiberesima

Ibinabo Fiberesima is determined not to go to prison for the case in which she killed a medical doctor with her car in an unfortunate incident in Lagos. She's been in prison since last month, battling for bail.


After being initially denied bail by a three man panel presided over by Justice Ndukwe-Anyanwu, the actress has reportedly been granted bail by the Court of Appeal.

Ibinabo was granted a bail of 2 million naira but with strong conditions.

She is also expected to present two sureties of like sum residing within the jurisdiction of the court. And the sureties must both be property owners in Lagos state.

According to several sources, the Appeal Court, sitting in Lagos, said it was granting the actress bail pending the determination of an appeal filed by her at the Supreme court.

But she is determined to escape jail full time. Her new counsel is led by Adeyemi Muiz Banire (SAN) who was a former commissioner in Lagos.
