Lagos State Police Command is currently investigating a 70-year-old farmer, named Bashiru Abiodun, for defiling his daughter.

Abiodun, who lives at No. 26, Papa-Ado Street in the Agbowa community of Lagos State, was arrested on 29 August 2024, by the Agbowa-Ejirin division of the community for defiling his 14-year-old daughter.

According to the victim’s mother, Mrs. Abiodun, “My daughter told me that her father had been sexually abusing her before I caught him defiling our daughter”.

Explaining further, Mrs Abiodun said after she confronted her husband, accusing him of defiling their daughter, it resulted in an argument and animosity from him.

“In order to suppress the issue and render me and the victim more vulnerable, he put his only house for sale and collected part payment from the buyer. He then relocated and went to live in Itu Kosomi community.

“My husband believes selling the house will serve as punishment for us to leave him alone and not to accuse him of his crime. At the police station, a member of our community alleged that my husband also defiled his first daughter from his first wife who is now married”.

The victim (name withheld) stated, “My father occasionally had carnal knowledge of me”.
