Lazarus Olleh, a Nigerian based in the United Kingdom, has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for raping a teenager.

According to a report by the BBC, Olleh is also to be deported to Nigeria once the prison sentence is completed.
The 38-year-old Nigerian bagged the sentence after he was tried at Hull Crown Court on Wednesday.
The rape incident was said to have happened on October 29, 2022.
On the night of the incident, Olleh was said to have targeted the then 18-year-old lone victim who was reportedly drunk at the time.
The victim was returning from a Halloween-themed event at a nightclub in the city when she ran into Olleh.
On sighting the victim, Olleh was said to have approached her. After engaging her in a short conversation, he then led her to his car.
According to Ethan Anderson, a detective constable at Humberside Police, Olleh sat the victim in the passenger seat and subsequently drove her to a nearby flat where he raped her.
The victim was later dropped off in the New Bridge Road area of the city, where she sought assistance from her friends.
“Olleh is a clear danger to women; he was waiting for an opportunity that night to take and rape a girl,” Anderson said.
Reports show Olleh had only just arrived in the UK from Nigeria when the incident happened.
