A 55-year-old lecturer at the Ekiti State University, Dr Ayinde Olukayode, has been discharged and acquitted of raping a 12-year-old girl by an Ado-Ekiti High Court.<\/p>\n

Olukayode has been standing trial for rape, an offence contrary to Section 31 (c) of the Child\u2019s Rights Law, Cap. C7, Laws of Ekiti State, 2012.<\/p>\n

The lecturer<\/a>, who was arraigned on March 7, 2022, pleaded not guilty to the allegation of raping a 12-year-old girl in August 2020, NAN reports.<\/p>\n

In his judgment, Justice Adekunle Adeleye held that the prosecution witnesses created doubt in the mind of the court with the discrepancies in their evidence.<\/p>\n

The judge said the prosecution failed \u201cto prove the case beyond reasonable doubt.\u201d<\/p>\n

He, therefore, discharged and acquitted Olukayode of the offence of rape for insufficient evidence.<\/p>\n

During the trial, the prosecution called four witnesses and tendered four exhibits, while the defendant called five witnesses.<\/p>\n

The prosecution, through witnesses, claimed that the defendant allegedly had carnal knowledge of the victim several times, while the victim told the court that she did not inform anybody.<\/p>\n

The medical doctor that examined the minor confirmed that her hymen was broken, affirming that there was a fresh injury on the girl\u2019s external genitalia without discharge.<\/p>\n

The child said in June 2021, a group, led by the Ekiti State Attorney-General, came to her school to give a sensitisation lecture, adding that she wrote down the Ministry of Justice\u2019s helpline dictated to students by the attorney-general.<\/p>\n

She said she confided in a man who had a shop next to her guardian because she wanted to borrow his phone to call the ministry\u2019s helpline.<\/p>\n

Rather, the man helped her inform one of her teachers, who later briefed the principal and in turn contacted the Ekiti State Sexual Referral Centre.<\/p>\n

The father of the minor, Olatunji Ojo, who testified on oath as a defence witness, told the court that Olukayode did not rape his child because the man was \u201ca father to all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Olukayode, in his defence, claimed that he was battling erectile dysfunction, which medically could not position him to have sexual intercourse.<\/p>\n

The defendant\u2019s wife, Eunice Olabisi, also testified that her husband could not have sex with her in spite of romances for the past five years due to erectile dysfunction<\/a>, and therefore could not have committed the offence.<\/p>\n

Counsel for the defendant, Mr Oladele Adedeji, submitted that evidence led by the prosecution through the witnesses did not link the defendant with the crime.<\/p>\n

Adedeji noted that a medical examination ought to have been conducted when the matter was fresh to show how the hymen was broken.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
