Ominikoron and others now at large were accused of conspiring, raping and killed Bamise.
A driver of the Lagos Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), Andrew Nice Ominikoron has been sentenced to death by hanging.
A Lagos State High Court sitting at the Tafawa Balewa Square sentenced the driver to death on Friday for killing Bamise Ayanwola, a 22-year-old fashion designer.
Sherifat Sonaike, the trial judge, gave the verdict on Friday.
Ominikoron and others now at large were accused of conspiring, raping and killed Bamise.
In February 2022, Bamise entered a BRT bus but never got to her destination.
Security operatives later found her naked body by the road side.
The driver of the BRT she boarded was eventually arrested and charged to court for murder.
The driver, Ominikoron, pleaded not guilty but he has now been convicted and sentenced to death.
