The trial of Nollywood actor, Olanrewaju Omiyinka aka Baba Ijesha at the Lagos Special Offences Court in Ikeja, scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, has been rescheduled.
The trial was stalled due to the long vacation of the judges.
The judges will be on vacation till third week of September.
Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo, at the last sitting, adjourned the matter to August 11 and 12 for continuation of the trial.
But the case has been adjourned to September 27.
In the meantime, Baba Ijesha has returned to acting movies.
The actor who made the revelation during an interview with a radio station (Oodua FM 90.9) in Ile-Ife, Osun State, said he is currently shooting a movie in the State.
The actor also promoted two new songs titled; ‘Eleda mi’ and ‘very soon,’ during the interview.
Baba Ijesha was recently granted bail after he was charged with sexually assaulting a minor.
The actor has been in the eye of the storm since April 22, 2021 when Lagos Police Command arrested him for allegedly assaulting a 14-year-old girl.
The Nation reports the embattled actor was facing six-count charges of sexual assault by penetration, indecent treatment of a child, and sexual assault, which contravene sections 259, 135, and 261 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2011, as well as 135, 263, and 262 Criminal Law of Lagos State 2015.
