Dr. Femi Olaleye finally addresses the claims of rape.

 Popular Lagos physician Femi Olaleye, who is now in the news for allegedly defiling a kid, has finally made a statement. Kate Henshaw, a well-known fitness fanatic and single mother of one, earlier came forward to reveal that Dr. Femi Olaleye, the founder of the Optimal Healthcare Company, had molested his wife's niece for more than two years.

Kate Henshaw wrote “I have always advocated ZERO TOLERANCE on gender-based violence and child abuse. My stance will never change as long as I live…@drfemi I have supported your work for many years…I have been to your home and celebrated your birthday with you and your family…Calling me a liar after admitting to my face what you did smacks of disrespect to my person…You molested a minor… This may not even be your first time…I am calling on all others whom you have assaulted to come forward and make sure that you pay for the crimes you have committed.”

Additionally, the Lagos State Government attempted in vain to get Olaleye charged in the Ikeja Special Offenses Court on Monday. But according to his attorney, he was out of town and will be accessible on the following postponed date. Olaleye has already responded, claiming that the accusations made against him are untrue, spiteful, and appear to be a set-up. A two-count accusation of alleged defilement and sexual assault by penetration of his wife's niece is being brought against him.

In a statement, the medical practitioner said, “My name and organization are in the news and on social media for all the wrong reasons.”

He further said, “I think I may have underestimated the situation and thought it was a domestic issue which my wife and those encouraging her to destroy our home have weaponized.”

He added that his person, work, corporate and individual partnerships and friendships are threatened by the “baseless and false allegations.”

Olaleye noted that the situation has been on since November 2021 and that he has been fighting to save his marriage which has seen numerous crisis over the past 11 years.

“I have now decided to fight against the false and malicious allegations and of course what now looks like set-up/blackmail,” he said.

The medical doctor added that he would let the public know the outcome of investigation by the authorities.
