Oba Accused Of Raping Ex-Youth Corper Knows Fate Tomorrow

Oba Adebukola Alli who has been standing trial for allegedly raping an ex-Youth Corps member, Miss Hellen Okpara who served in his domain  2010, will know his fate tomorrow as the final judgement will be delivered at a High Court sitting in Ikirun, Ifelodun Local Government Area of the state.

Justice Falola who had been transferred from the state High Court in Osogbo to Ikirun, will deliver the final judgement.

The traditional ruler facing a one-count charge of rape claims the victim was his lover and that it was not their first time of making love.

He said; 

“The lady is my lover, I did not rape her and that was not our first time of having sexual intercourse, she is my lover, but I was surprised when I got to the police station over the allegation. She slept with me from 25 to 26 March, 2011 and I got to know that she had reported me to the police on Monday, 28 March, 2011.

“I met the ex-corper during a programme in Ibokun. On the day in question, 25 March, 2011, both of us left Ilowa to Osogbo where we branched at Osun grove in order to replicate the grove at Ilowa historical site.

“After we left Osun grove, we drove down to my private residence where we spent the night and when it was 10:30 to 11pm, she removed her jacket and she told me to help her loose her underwear from her back, which I did and I discovered that she was not wearing any bra, she then took off her skirt and pants herself and we started making love. After making love that night which lasted without struggle, I drove her back the next day to Ilowa.

“But I was surprised on Monday, 28 March, when I was invited to the police station over the allegation of defiling her. She is my regular visitor to Ilowa palace and my private house in Osogbo. Even many people including my brothers and other obas knew about our relationship,”

We patiently await tomorrow's Judgement.
