BREAKING: Lagos doctor, Olaleye bags life imprisonment for raping wife’s niece
Femi Olaleye, the general director of the Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, was sentenced to life in jail for raping the niece of his wife.
On Tuesday, Rahman Oshodi, the judge at Lagos’ special offenses and domestic violence court, convicted Olaleye on a two-count allegation of defilement of a child and sexual assault by penetration.
The judge ruled that the defendant should serve life imprisonment for count one and the same for count two.
The judge said the sentencing should run concurrently.

In November 2022, Olaleye was arraigned by the Lagos state government on a two-count charge of defilement of a child and sexual assault by penetration.
The medical doctor, however, pleaded not guilty to the two-count charge.
The cancer care advocate was accused of sexually violating a minor, who was said to be a niece of his wife, for over 20 months.
During the trial, Aderemi, the estranged wife of Olaleye, had told the court that his husband introduced the underage victim to pornography and oral sex.
