Man in police net for defiling own daughters and step daughter

The Nigerian Police have arrested 37 year old Ajiboye Oluwaseyi, for allegedly defiling his two daughters a 6-year-old and a 4-year-old and his 15 year old stepdaughter in the Lekki area of Lagos state.

It was gathered that Oluwaseyi, who hails from Ondo State, was arrested on Wednesday, August 19, after his wife reported the matter to the police.

It was learnt that Oluwaseyi, who worked as a Lotto agent, had separated from his wife in December 2014.

He was said to have taken the 2 girls from his wife, leaving her with a baby (the 3rd child) and allegedly convinced his stepdaughter, Simbi (not her real name) to stay with him.

It was learnt that Simbi had allegedly been raped many times before she opened up to a neighbour, who reported the matter to the mother who went to a non-governmental organisation to report the sexual abuse of her daughter.

The police were informed and they in turn arrested Oluwaseyi and also took the 3 girls for medical tests which confirmed that Simbi had been raped on several occasions, while Oluwaseyi’s two daughters had also been defiled.

The suspect’s wife said she left her husband to avoid an untimely death.

She added that Oluwaseyi refused her access to her daughters until the NGO and the police got involved.

She said, “We were staying together in the Lekki Phase 1 area. My 15-year-old daughter, whom I had for another man, and the two daughters I have for Oluwaseyi were living with us until December.

We had a quarrel and Oluwaseyi threatened to kill me. He sent me out.

Family members, including his father, appealed to him to reconcile with me, but he refused. He also refused to allow me to see my daughters.

When I heard about the rape, I confronted him on the matter. He boasted that nothing would happen to him. He broke bottles, and said he would kill me. Later on when I sat my first daughter down, she confessed to me that she was truly raped, and that it had occurred on several occasions.

That was why I took the matter to the government, so that they would help me to check Oluwaseyi’s excesses.”

It was gathered that the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team, provided medical attention, through the Mirabel Centre, to the three girls, and ensured that the police got the suspect arrested.

A police source said “The woman initially left with the teenager and the two girls she has for Oluwaseyi in December, 2014. The suspect, however, trailed her and forcefully took the girls, threatening to take her life if she refused.

The suspect was arrested on Wednesday, August 19, in the family’s Lekki apartment, while his daughters were also taken to the centre for tests. It was confirmed that they had been defiled. The two of them are in Primary 3 and Primary 1 respectively.”

The girls are currently living with their mother.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Patricia Amadin, confirmed the incident.

She added that Oluwaseyi had been arrested.

Her union with a Lagos-based hotelier, Lanre Gentry has almost become a model to some people.

Mercy Aigbe told Nigeriafilms.com at a recent event in Lagos that she has been able to keep her home intact by having time with her family.

She disclosed that aside looking radiant always, she keeps her husband asking for more of her by wearing shorts when she is indoor with him. This, she said, makes her husband want her around him.

According to her, “Anytime I wear shorts, my husband always trips so he likes having me around that’s just it.”

“No, I can’t go out braless; I’m a mother, so I will not do that. But some ladies do that and for me, if they look good in it, fine, why not,” she posited.

Bayelsa Poll: Tension grips APC as defected PDP Chair slumps at Town Hall Meeting

With less than three months to the December 5 governorship election, major tragedy was averted on Saturday in Nembe, Bayelsa State following the sudden slump of the former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Col. Sam Inokoba (rtd), who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

During the incident which happened at a Town Hall meeting in Nembe, tension, fear and apprehension was said to have gripped the leadership of the APC.

It was however not clear whether journalists from both print and electronic media were compromised from writing the report of a major incident that took place in public domain.

But an eyewitness at the forum who pleaded anonymity said “something funny happened and you don’t expect everything to be made public.”

Sources at the event said the programme was on-going when Inokoba suddenly collapsed and was rushed to a local hospital where he was said to be under intensive care as efforts were being made by medical personnel to stabilise his condition.

The Timipre Sylva-led APC leadership in the state was said to be uncomfortable with the situation and tried to keep the incident away from the press.

But it soon became public knowledge when relatives and associates came to the hospital where Inokoba was being treated.

Reacting to the development, the Ijaw Young Professionals called on Inokoba’s family and the general public to hold the APC  responsible should anything happened to the former PDP chairman.

Spokesman of IYP, Seighfa Tonye-Brown, in a statement in Yenagoa, berated the APC for attempting to hide the unfortunate incident.

According to him, the action of the APC leadership was suspicious and not in good faith.

He warned that should anything untoward happen to the Odi-born politician, the action of APC would be called to question.

Inokoba, who marked his 70th birthday in April, the statement claimed, had been in and out of hospital all through last year and till date.

Tonye-Brown added that all the while, his medical bills and welfare were provided by the Dickson-led PDP government.

“On several occasions, we were aware that he was flown abroad for medical treatment courtesy of the PDP-led government in the state. Even on the eve of his defection to the APC, we were privy to the fact that he was given the sum of N5 million by the Contriman governor, Henry Seriake Dickson, to proceed abroad for his usual medical check and treatment”, Tonye-Brown stated
