Lagos Doctor, Olaleye Appeals Judgment over False Rape Allegation

Dr. Olufemi Olaleye, the Medical Director of the Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, has requested that the Court of Appeal overturn the lower court’s verdict convicting him of rape.

On October 24, the Lagos Sexual Offenses and Domestic Violence Court in Ikeja convicted him guilty of defiling his wife’s 16-year-old niece and imposed a life sentence on him.
