Nigerian Nurse Faces 17-Year UK Prison Sentence After Rape Allegation by British Woman He Once Helped.

Around the world

The news as it trends.

Tolu, a Nigerian mental health nurse in the UK, is facing a devastating 17-year prison sentence after being accused of rape by a British woman he once loved.

His story began with sacrifice—selling family possessions to pursue education abroad.

He earned a master’s degree, overcame language barriers, and became a registered nurse. Along the way, he met a British single mother and cared for her children as his own.

They had a child together, but the relationship was marred by racial abuse and constant conflict.

After moving out, Tolu fought to be legally recognized as the father of his child. A DNA test confirmed his paternity, and the court granted his request.

Just as his career began to flourish, the woman reappeared, asking to reconcile.

Friends warned him to be cautious, but he let her back into his life. She moved in with her children, claiming to be pregnant again.

Tolu refused to make her a business partner, citing her lack of qualifications.

Tensions escalated, and racial slurs resurfaced.

Then came the shocking accusation: rape.

Tolu was arrested at work, suspended, and banned from his own home.

The woman remains there with the children. His court hearing is set for February 2026.

The Nigerian community is stunned, calling it a spiritual attack and a cautionary tale.

Tolu’s story, shared live on YouTube, has sparked global empathy and outrage.

Many now rally behind him, demanding justice and compassion for a man whose dreams may be shattered.
