On
Friday, a three-man appellate court panel, In a lead judgement by
Justice Jamilu Tukur, dismissed Fiberesima’s notice of appeal adjudging
it as lacking in merit and upheld the judgement of a Lagos State High Court that initially sentenced AGN President, Ibinabo Fiberesima, to five years imprisonment for manslaughter.
A Lagos High Court had in 2009 sentenced Fiberesima to five years imprisonment for manslaughter, involving the death of a medical doctor, Suraj Giwa, following an auto accident in 2006 along the Lekki-Epe Expressway.
On Thursday, January, 28, 2016, an appeal court in Lagos had reserved the ruling on the appeal filed by Fiberesima for the sentence given by Oluwayemi.
She spent three months and three days in prison, but went on to appeal the case.
