Medical director sentenced to life imprisonment for defiling wife’s niece (VIDEO)

In a landmark ruling by the Lagos State Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court, Dr. Olufemi Olaleye, the Medical Director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, has been sentenced to life imprisonment for the defilement of his wife’s niece.
The judgment was delivered on Tuesday by Justice Rahman Oshodi, who found the doctor guilty of defilement and sexual penetration of a 15-year-old girl.

The court established beyond reasonable doubt that Dr. Olaleye committed the heinous act, with all the evidence presented corroborating the victim’s testimony.
The charges brought by the Lagos State Government accused the doctor of unlawfully engaging in sexual intercourse with his wife’s niece and sexually assaulting her by penetrating her mouth with his penis.

Dr. Olaleye, who had pleaded not guilty to the charges when arraigned on November 30, 2022, was granted bail during the trial.
However, Justice Oshodi ordered him to surrender his international and British passports, as well as the original documents of his landed property, to the court registrar.
The judge also mandated two sureties, each providing evidence of tax payments to the Lagos State Government over the past three years and possessing landed property within the state.

During the trial, the doctor’s wife, Aderemi Olaleye, testified that her husband had been sexually abusing her niece while she stayed with them.
She revealed that the abuse began in March 2020 and continued until July 2021, with Dr. Olaleye introducing explicit material and engaging in oral sex with the victim.
The conviction of Dr. Olufemi Olaleye sends a strong message that perpetrators of sexual offences will face severe consequences for their actions.
