Girl covers face in shame |
IN LAGOS, a 13year-old girl, has testified before the police
how her own father and his friend raped
her non-stop for seven years.
The thirteen-year-old(,names withheld) said that her father
began to have sex with her since the very year her mother parted ways with her
dad. 'It all began in the year 2006 when I was only six years old. That was
also when my mum parted ways with my father. So, I was left under the care of my dad in Lagos. He would rape me
and threaten to kill me if I should reveal it to anyone. His friend who is also
our neighbor here in Yetunde Morgan
Estate,Ojodu ,has also been having sex with me, even without my consent, since
then.Whenever he discovers that my father has gone out either to workplace or
somewhere else,Mr.Oha would dash into our apartment and forced me into sex too.He
threatened to kill me if I should tell
it to anybody . My father and his friend ,Mr.Oha have continued like this since I was six
years old till date. They have taken too much of me ,so I decided to reveal the
matter to the Nigerian Police’’,she further said.
Confirming the story ,the Police Public Relations
Officer(PPRO)Lagos State Police Command said that the father of the girl whose
name was given as Mr,Stephen Chimara Obi,42, from Delta State has refused to
marry after parting ways with his wife since 2006.Rather Mr, Obi and his friend Mr,Oha chose to turn his own daughter into a sex
machine in the house, and committed rape with the minor severally for good
seven years.Mr,Obi’s friend Paul Oha from Imo State, is said to be married with
two children.
Recounting further, the girl said her father’s friend
Mr,Paul Oha rapes her not with her father’s knowledge. Because he too does it
in secret. Whenever my dad goes out to workplace, he (Paul) would come into our
apartment and have sex with me. And too, has always threatened to kill me
should I expose him.Also,when my dad returns in the evening from workplace, he
would mount on me and take tons of sex.He would warn that I shouldn’t dare
speak out to anyone’s hearing.
The Director of Public Prosecutions(DPP),said that Mr,Obi
and his friend Paul Oha,had since been remanded in Kirikiri Prisons, while
investigations into the matter is still being carried on. Their case has been
adjourned till November,2013 when the court would resume hearing of the case.
