 Court sends Koko Zaria to prison for assaulting actor, Baba Lawori


A Lagos Chief Magistrate Court on Thursday, September 5th, remanded Ganiyu Oyedepo, better known as Koko Zaria, a Chieftain of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) in prison custody for assaulting actor Baba Lawori.


The  Yoruba actor had cried out to Nigerians for help over a brutal attack from one of the aides of Koko Zaria. He recounted how he was performing as a Master of Ceremony at an event when a stranger approached him, claiming that Koko Zaria wanted to see him, unknowingly that it was a set-up. When he arrived, Koko Zaria questioned why he didn’t acknowledge him. Baba Lawori had apologised, promising to make corrections, when one of his associates smashed a bottle on his head, and he was covered in his blôod and lost consciousness.


The Nigeria police said it would investigate the assault, and they kept to their words, as Chief Magistrate B Sonuga remanded Koko Zaria after he pleaded not guilty to the charges brought against him by the operatives of the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (FCIID). The prosecutor, Morufu Animashaun, a legal officer in the legal department of FCIID, Alagbon said in a charge marked B/40/2024, told the court that the defendant committed the offences on June 5, 2024 at Idimu, by conspiring with some of his boys to assault Lawori in the head with a bottle, which led to an injury.


The report stated that Kokozaria was charged to court on four counts of assault occasioned with harm, Conspired to commit Felony to wit, procured boys to inflict harm on another and a conscious breach of peace.


The protege of MC Oluomo denied the allegations and pleaded not guilty to the charges. His lawyers, S. Bello and S.O Ajetomobi, moved for bail application, saying the charge against their client is a bailable one. They urged the court to grant him bail in the most liberal terms.


Chief Magistrate Sonuga, after hearing counsels’ submissions, grated Oyedepo bail in the sum of N2 million with two sureties in like sum. The sureties must be of unquestionable character with evidence of means of livelihood and reside within the court’s jurisdiction.

The Chief Magistrate also ordered the sureties to present to court evidence of three years tax and have their addresses verified. The Chief Magistrate, however, remanded the defendant in the Nigerian Correctional Services (NCoS) custody, pending the perfection of bail terms.


After the reports about his arrest went viral, Kokozaria took to his social media handle to share a video of himself dancing with one of his daughters.

In another video, some artisans were heard hailing and praying for the NURTW chieftain while noting that his enemies would only try but would never be able to catch him.


However, it is being whispered that Kokozaria is currently not in Nigeria and had fled to the United States days before the court asked that he be remanded in jail,allegedly.


The source also stated that Kokozaria is currently facing persecution because he is no longer MC Oluo-mo's errand boy.
