Oloton Accepts Apology as Court Strikes Out Cyberstalking Case Against Ex-NBA Chairman


The Chief Executive Officer of Uyi Technical Ltd, Elder Francis Omoruyi Oloton, has accepted an apology from a former Chairman of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Benin Branch, Ede Asenoguan, leading to the striking out of a criminal case instituted against him.

At the resumed hearing of Suit No. FHC/B/121C/2025, the Police Prosecutor, P. O. Odion, informed the court that the defendant had written a letter of apology to the nominal complainant, Oloton which was accepted.

 Consequently, the prosecutor applied to discontinue the case.
Counsel to the nominal complainant, E. O. Afolabi, SAN, alongside Douglas Ogbankua Esq. and H. E. Edobor, as well as counsel to the defendant, F. I. Eseghile, supported by I. E. Iguodala and Adesuwa Ediae, raised no objection to the application for the discontinuance of the matter.

The prosecutor recalled that at the previous adjourned sitting, both parties had indicated their willingness to explore an out-of-court settlement and sought an adjournment to enable them to conclude discussions.

In his ruling, the presiding judge, Justice B. O. Quadri, struck out the case.

The Police had instituted a four-count charge against Asenoguan and Jessica Iguodala Oghomwen, who is said to be at large, over allegations bordering on cyberstalking, cyberbullying and perversion of justice.

This apology has finally brought to an end the cyberbullying case between Oloton and the former NBA, Benin Branch Chairman, Ede Asenoguan.
