The Court of Appeal in Lagos has nullified the rape conviction of Femi Olaleye, the Managing Director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation.
In a ruling delivered on Friday, the appellate court held that the lower court made an error in its judgment, leading to Olaleye’s discharge and acquittal.
Recall that 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.
