The Nigerian Police in Lagos State has arrested a 36-year
old man who allegedly raped and impregnated his 14-year old daughter.
DSP Ngozi Braide, the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, made this known when she briefed newsmen in Ikeja.
Braide
said the girl had been pregnant for the past two months and that the
man claimed to be bewitched.
She added that the mother of
the girl divorced her father seven years ago.
Braide added that the matter was reported at Meiran Police Station of the Area ‘M’ Police Command.
The
victim told newsmen that her father brought a native doctor who
convinced her that sex was part of the treatment to cure her undisclosed
sickness before she was raped.
“My father gives me native soap
and sponge probably for ritual bath always. He once entered the bathroom
with me and had sex with me forcefully.
“He took me to bed forcefully several times in his room and when I refused, he threatened to kill me with a knife.
“Since then, he had been making love to me under the guise that I will be cured”, she said.
