Appeal Court Nullifies Rape Conviction of Lagos doctor Femi Olaleye

The appeal court sitting in Lagos has nullified the rape conviction of Femi Olaleye, managing director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation.

On Friday, the appellate court held that the lower court erred in its judgment.

The appeal court thereafter discharged and acquitted Olaleye.

In October 2023, the special offences and domestic violence court in Lagos convicted Olaleye on a two-count charge of defilement of a child and sexual assault by penetration.

Rahman Oshodi, the judge, had sentenced Olaleye to life imprisonment over rape
