Alleged Rape: Baba Ijesha, minor were acting out script – WitnessFebruary 17, 2022The first witness to testify in Yoruba actor, Olanrewaju Omiyinka alias Baba Ijesha’s defence on Thursday said the actor and the minor he allegedly raped were both acting out a script.Lawrence Ayeni, a graduate of Mechanical Engineering, who is also experienced in video production as well as CCTV installation and maintenance, was the witness.
The witness, who was led in his evidence by the co-lead defence counsel, Babatunde Ogala, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, said the CCTV has no audio because it was a fibre camera that was used. “The girl often looked at the camera so she was acting out what she was told to. At the point of copying the contents into a computer, errors could have been inputed or tampered with”.The other videos viewed were when Baba Ijesha was seen pleading for forgiveness from the minor’s foster mother, Princess, when she accosted him.
