The Suspect has appeared for various clients including the Federal High Court, Abeokuta as well as various magistrate courts in Ogun State.

Adedeji Adelekan met his water loo on Wednesday, 5th August 2020 when he appeared before the Magistrate court sitting at Itori in Ogun State, where he appeared for Mr Muri Kuti and four others. When challenged in an open court by a real lawyer, who pleaded anonymity to our reporter, the Magistrate asked the suspect in open court if he ever went to a law school and the culprit confessed that he was never called to the Nigerian bar, as he had failed to pass his final examination at the Nigerian Law School.
