Kemi Filani reported on Friday, November 15th, that the famous actor Olanrewaju Omiyinka, professionally known as Baba Ijesha, has finally been released from prison, after spending over three years in custody over alleged sexual assault.

Praying for the person, he declared that he wouldn’t be disgraced.
“Baba Ese, I have come out. I just came out. I just want to leave there and look for a place to go. I just want to tell you. Thank you for your support. You will not be disgraced.
Let me find where to relax. Ese gan. Thank you”, he said in Yoruba.

Recall that in 2022, Baba Ijesha had bagged 5 years imprisonment for raping comedienne, Princess’s 14 years old daughter.
Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo, in a two-hour judgement, convicted Baba Ijesha of indecent treatment of a child, sexual assault and attempted sexual assault. Taiwo, however, discharged and acquitted him of counts one and count six. He was thereby sentenced to 16 years imprisonment but was to face only 5 years consecutively.
After the vindictive from the court, comedienne, Princess was all joy after Baba Ijesha bagged 16years imprisonment. She shared a video of herself jubiliating.
Refreshing your memory, in 2021, Princess, accused Ijesha of defiling her 14-year-old ward. In a video that was made available online, the actress accused Baba Ijesha of molesting her daughter without consent.
