Temitope Ewuoso, 16, has claimed that her father, Kayode, raped her.
The victim said that in Solotan Estate, Laderin, Abeokuta, Ogun State, her father had repeatedly demanded and coerced her into having intercourse in his chamber.
The victim claims that the father started requesting sex as soon as her mother got a divorce from him.
The father was detained as he reported the event to members of the Ogun State Social Orientation and Safety Corps, who then brought the case to the local police station.
The suspect said during questioning that the daughter was lying against him because he had reprimanded her for being wayward and promiscuous.
She’s lying. According to the father, who reprimanded the daughter for it, she is using this as a ruse to hide her promiscuity.
The inquiry is still ongoing, according to Omolola Odutola, the state police public relations officer, who confirmed the occurrence.
“The father was taken into custody. We’ve started looking at the claim in more detail. Both parties will be brought to the State CID for a covert inquiry, according to a message Odutola sent on WhatsApp on Tuesday.
