Nollywood Actor Arrested For Ráping Daughter’s Friend

Nollywood actor, Ganiyu Oyeyemi, popularly known as Ogunjimi was last week arrested for allegedly molesting his daughter’s friend in Osogbo, Osun State.

The actor was arrested and detained on Tuesday by the Osun State Police Command after a 22-year-old lady (names withheld) laid a rape complaint at the police station. The case has, however, been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department in Osun for further investigation.

Reports say doctors have confirmed that the victim was violated by Ogunjimi. The actor was said to have been responsible for the upkeep of the lady and her mother who until recently lived with him in his Osogbo residence. The victim’s mother had left her with Ogunjimi in Osogbo and relocated to Lagos before the incident occurred.

A senior police officer at the Oke Bale Police Division where Ogunjimi was taken after his arrest told reporters that the Divisional Police Officer (DPO), transferred the case to the SCID due to the overwhelming pressure mounted on him to release the suspect.

Osun Police Public Relations Officer, Folashade Odoro who confirmed that the case had been reported to the police, also confirmed that the popular Yoruba actor was being detained at the SCID, Osogbo.
