A father raped his 13 year old daughter just to spite his wife.
The 39 year old man, a native of Edo state , was reported by his daughter after much endurance of her father's illicit midnight escapades with her to a neighbour Mrs Elizabeth, who then reported the man to the community Landlords where they reside in sango ota, Abule ijoko, Robiyan community in Ogun State.
During our correspondent inquiry, the neighbour confirmed what the girl said, that her father sleeps with her about four times in a week and any time she refuses and wants to struggle he will chock her throat. " I could not tell any body because he threatened fo kill me if I do but when it got too much I had to tell our neighbour " said the girl.
Further inquiry with the neighbour,the father was quoted to have said that the mother of the girl travelled by road to Europe about two years ago, leaving with him four children to charter for. He admitted to have raped his daughter severally and firmly said it was to spite and punish his wife for abandoning him with the children to travel abroad.
An N.G.O , Jashabel Touch a Heart Foundation who showed interest in the matter visited the girl in other to have counseling session with her in respect to the trauma she had passed through but were told that the mother's family have taken custody of the children, while there father is yet to face the law for the barbaric crime he committed which is also Incest.
The foundation is currently working towards bringing the man to justice through reporting the matter to relevant authorities so that the poor girl can get justice and rehabilitation.
Also,a member of the landlord association who claimed anonymity said the case was reported to Agbado police station by the community landlords and the man has been arrested and detained for further investigations. This claim has however not been confirmed at the time of writing this report.
