Baba Ijesha Officially Added to Lagos S*x Offenders List After Court Conviction
Nollywood actor Baba Ijesha has been officially listed on the Lagos State S*x Offenders Register, following his conviction for sexual assault. The update was made in line with the state’s policy to publicly document individuals found guilty of sex-related crimes. His inclusion reinforces Lagos’ ongoing effort to strengthen accountability and ensure transparency in cases involving minors and vulnerable persons.
The Lagos State Domestic and S*xual Violence Agency (DSVA) confirmed the move, noting that the listing is part of its broader strategy to deter potential offenders and empower survivors. With Baba Ijesha’s name now on the S*x Offenders Register, the case remains a major reference point in Nigeria’s conversation around child protection, justice reform, and the ongoing fight against gender-based violence.
Public reactions continue to pour in across social media, with many praising the government’s stance and urging authorities to sustain strict enforcement. For advocates and civil society organisations, the inclusion sends a clear message that sexual crimes will not be swept under the carpet, regardless of an offender’s status or influence. The case also highlights the importance of reporting abuse and ensuring survivors receive the support they need.
