Dr Femi Olaleye, the just-convicted Medical Director of Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, had previously alleged that his wife, Aderemi, framed him for the allegation.
During Olaleye’s trial, Aderemi told the Lagos State Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court, in her testimony that her husband had been sexually abusing her niece during her stay in their house.
According to Aderemi, she got to know about the incidents after the survivor summoned courage, and approached her aunt to disclose her ordeal in the hands of the convict.
Aderemi quoted the victim as saying that Olaleye had been sleeping with her and threatening to kill her if she told anyone.
The mother of two, who is the complainant stated, “My lord, on November 27, 2021, my second cousin told my aunty who is my mother’s sister that since March 2020, Femi has been sexually abusing her and introduced her to pornography, from there he graduated to oral sex with her, that he does this in different places in the house where there are no cameras”.
In the words of Dr Femi Olaleye…
Revealing that he had been married to Aderemi for 12 years and the marriage produced two children, Dr Olaleye alleged that his wife cheated on him.
“I confronted her when she cheated on me with her ex-boyfriend. She also took a loan to buy a car without my consent. After two years in our marriage, we were separated for 12 months due to various lies she told me.
“Her educational background is false. She gave me a fake school certificate copy which I submitted to my lawyer,” he said.
The convict alleged that the victim/survivor, who was 18 years old when she started living with his family, was brought against his consent.
Dr Olaleye further stated that he had a disagreement with his wife because he excluded her name from his house documents.
“I had just finished paying all encumbrances and she saw that her name was not included. I today her it is my property but it is for her and my children. This led to a fight.
“I got upset and told her I was no longer interested in the marriage. I came to the house on Nov. 28, the following day, and my children drew my attention to the fact that there had been a serious beating of the girl by their mother and that I should go check the CCTV. This was where I saw a brutal assault lasting for over 10 minutes with an iron and a hammer on the girl.
“An attempt to find out what transpired led to insults, she threatened that she was going to repeat the same treatment to the girl if I continued to question her. “So I drove out of the house with the young girl,” he said.
The defendant further told the court that he returned home in the evening and met his wife and her Aunt Tessy discussing in their native language which he did not understand.
