By Akinwale Kasali Olufemi Olaleye, disgraced Medical Director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation who was sentenced to a double life imprisonment on the 24th of October 2023 by the Lagos State Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court in Ikeja for defiling his wife’s niece has faulted the judgement by the Court. His wife’s niece, a minor, lived in the house with him and his wife and children.Olaleye has just appealed against the judgement of the lower Court on 35 grounds. He accused the Court of erring on all counts, totalling about 35, and is, therefore, seeking redress from the Appeal Court. He demanded to be absolved from the crime as well be discharged and acquitted.In his first ground to the court of appeal, Olaleye said the Honourable Lower Court erred in law when, in the absence of any direct evidence, it held that the alleged victim of the crime was a child of 16 at the time of the offence.
