Popular Nollywood actor, Baba Ijesha, has been sentenced to 16 years imprisonment after being found guilty of indecent treatment of a minor.

After almost a year, the actor was convicted of indecent treatment of a child, sexual assault, and attempted sexual assault.


Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo, in a two-hour judgment on Thursday, sentenced Baba Ijesha for abusing a 14-year-old girl.

Taiwo, however, discharged and acquitted him of counts one and count six, which were: sexual assault by penetration and attempted sexual assault by penetration.

At the end of the legal battle that lasted for months, the actor was thereby sentenced to 16 years imprisonment.
