Nigerian actor, Olanrewaju Omiyinka, popularly known as Baba Ijesha, was released from prison on Friday, November 14, 2025. He spent more than three years behind bars on allegations of sexual assault.
Actor, Yomi Fabiyi announced the release on his Instagram page, saying that the Appeal Court had cleared him. Fabiyi wrote, “You are now officially FREE AND OUT. Baba Ijesha is not just back but BETTER. I am also happy you were cleared by the APPEAL COURT of ever having sex/defile any child/minor. The 7‑year‑old story is a charade. We live in a terrible world, where sentiments and wickedness rise above the rule of law and truth.”
