Nigerian actor Olanrewaju Omiyinka, professionally known as Baba Ijesha, has been released from prison after spending over three years in custody for alleged sexual assault.

The actor regained his freedom on Friday, November 14, 2025 after being cleared by the Appeal Court.

Announcing Baba Ijesha’s release, actor Yomi Fabiyi, took to Instagram and 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.”

Baba Ijesha was sentenced to 16 years’ imprisonment on July 14, 2022, by the Lagos State High Court for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl.

He should turn his prison experience to skit, Naija will like it

Welcome back.. I sure hope he wasnt falsely accused like Mr Ozioma

You see this life? E no balance o

Welcome back. Hope you have learnt your lessons

Happy for you brov. Welcome back to freedom world. Know those you keep as friends from now on. They really want you down

I hope he has learnt his lessons. Go and sin no more.

And Wike, Akpabio, yahaya Bello, Dino, Tinubu, and a whole lot of our Treasury looters are walking freely and even occupying government positions. This country is really a joke

Oluwaseun oooooooooooo

Either way he suffered injustice.

Nigeria women have become so vicious that their only agenda on Earth is to destroy men.

One was just cleared too in Enugu who was a victim of a wicked woman he called his wife who was also trying to destroy him by accusing him of raping his two daughters.

Very wicked creatures

Yomi is a sub-human. His arguement is that the girl is not 14. The question is is she a minor? He never bothered about that.

Would love to read the appeal court judgement, to see on what ground he was released.

Now that he is out, lets someone play him VN sho raa fun obinrin ooo! olohun a wa pelu e

I hope U come powerfully to shame Ur shamers with back to back release of outstanding movies. Congrats

That's good o

I argued with him
Thinking is released
Long time ago

How ( bob) get out before this man

Is story for another day

Nothing as good as freedom.
Welcome back.

Forget all that long story.... The guy had something to do with the girl...... I hope 3 years in prison he must have learnt his lesson..... Oloshi

Am happy for him. I will never support any rape case maybe minor or adult. But most of all these rape cases are hoax or set up just to tarnish someone's image or pay u back

This Yomi Fabiyi go explain tire ooo abi what is he trying to prove with all this his incoherent epistle. Baba ilesha is free. Thank God & he should be more careful with his doings & pray against temptation in which ever form. Shikena

This case should be probed, if this guy was innocent all these while..then those who framed him up should be arrested and charged to court

That have was just related 28 November told me
Ijesha is still in prison I argued with him saying no is released

How bob get out before this man

Which 28th November are you talking about... Today's date is 15th November or do you operate another calendar that we do not know of

Many Nigerian men do not understand gRape, Child p0rn00graphy, stalking, pedophiliaar

Luckily, they learn the hard way abroad. They get taught the morals they lack. And what is the usual excuse ? "they set him up because he is a Black man"

Always exaggerating their self importance. You are not Martin Luther King or Malcolm X. Why will Whites go to great lengths to set up every single Black man? Yes there is discrimination, but stay away from underaged girls. There are oceans of ladies of appropriate age. Possibly up to 1 billion worldwide.

See what this one is defending!

PBAT and tribalism, damn!!.

Congratulations

Go and sin no more
