The case of Baba Ijesha, who was found guilty of raping a young girl, continues causing debate. Actor Yomi Fabiyi keeps insisting Baba did nothing wrong.
Fabiyi says there’s no real proof Ijesha slept with the girl. That’s why the judge didn’t give a life sentence. Fabiyi also says Baba’s lawyers are still fighting the verdict in court.
In recent interviews, Fabiyi shared updates. He claims Princess, the girl’s mother, invited Baba Ijesha to film a comedy skit. According to Fabiyi, that’s when rape claims started. He also questions if the girl’s age was true.
Many people feel Fabiyi is making excuses. They say this hurts victims and doesn’t take rape seriously. Courts found Baba Ijesha guilty already though. His lawyers can keep appealing through the legal process.
This case sparks important talks about stopping sexual abuse and protecting children. We must guide victims to get justice. Our role is also preventing such crimes in a respectful way through open discussion.
