Lagos Doctor Allegedly Confesses To Having Oral Sex With Wife’s 15-Year-Old Neice
A medical doctor at the Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, Dr Olufemi Olaleye, is facing trial for allegedly defiling his wife’s 15-year-old neice in Lagos.
The defendant’s wife, Mrs. Aderemi Olaleye, said in court that her husband sexually abused her niece when she was staying with them.
The witness, before an Ikeja Sexual Offenses and Domestic Violence Court, Ikeja testifies that between March 2020 and July 2021, the defendant introduced the victim to oral sex and pornography.
The defendant was charged on two counts bordering on defiling and sexual assault by penetration against his wife’s niece, who moved in with his family in December 2019 after losing her guardian.
The woman admitted to a relative and their driver that her husband had threatened to murder her if she told anybody about her ordeal, according to Aderemi, who had been married to the doctor for 11 years.
The mother of two, who was led in evidence by the state Director of Public Prosecutions, Dr Babajide Martins, said, “On November 27, 2021, my second cousin told my aunt, who is my mother’s sister, that since March 2020, Femi (Olufemi) has been sexually abusing her and introduced her to pornography, from there he graduated to having oral sex with her; that he does this in different places in the house where there are no cameras.”
The witness said the matter was reported to the Anthony Police Station, where the DPO was a patient of the defendant.
She said her husband broke down in tears after the DPO asked him about the allegations.
It was gathered that the doctor allegedly confessed to fingering and having oral sex with the victim before he was transferred to the Gender Section of the Lagos State Police Command.
The doctor reportedly signed an undertaking in the presence of his lawyer not to go near the victim and his children, as he confessed to having sex with the victim.
The doctor was said to have been admitted to a rehabilitation home, Grace Cottage Clinics, Ilupeju, to treat sex addiction.
“There was no time since November 2021 that Femi had denied the allegations. He has spoken to me about apologising to the whole family and the victim, stating it was the work of the devil.
“The psychologist at the rehab reached out to me that he had a diagnosis of sex addiction that I should go back to history that if not, my own daughter can be a victim,” she added.
The witness added that the therapist had warned her that her husband would relapse if he did not finish his sex addiction treatment.
In response to questions from the prosecutor, she claimed that the issue came to light when the family’s nanny reported to her that her niece had been rude.
She said that she had disciplined the victim, which the doctor was not comfortable with when he arrived.
The victim was then taken to her aunt’s home, she said to the court, by Olufemi.
“After he left the victim in my aunt’s house, my aunt, who is a retired school principal and psychologist, asked the victim what happened and she confessed to her. My aunt called and told me what happened and she said I should not tell Femi about it so that he won’t hurt me,” she added.
Earlier, Aderemi had testified in court that their driver, Yusuf, had witnessed her niece vomiting sperm in their compound.
Justice Oshodi adjourned the case to December 21 for continuation of trial.
