Incest in Ogun as Police Arrest Village Head for Defiling His 15-year-old Daughter

A village head in Ogun State, Rasheed Sholabi, Baale of Oose Agbedu Ajibawo in Owode-Yewa area has  been arrested by the police for having unlawful carnal knowledge of his 15 years old biological daughter (name withheld).

The Baale was arrested following a report by the victim, who walked into Owode Egbado police station and reported that her father had been having sex with her since she was eleven years old.

She told the police that as a result of the defilement, she had been finding it difficult to control her urinary system.

The victim told the police that she lost her mother when she was barely two years old and that the suspect did not allow her to know any relation of her mother.

She said she was therefore left with no option than to continue staying with her father who used the opportunity to sexually abuse her from time to time.

Upon the report, the Divisional Police Office, DPO, of Owode-Egbado, SP Olabisi Elebute, led her men to the place where the village head was promptly arrested.

On interrogation, he first denied the allegation, but when he was confronted by the victim and one of his ex-wife who corroborated the victim’s statement, the suspect fainted and was taken to the hospital for resuscitation.

His ex-wife informed the police that she caught him red handed while having sex with his daughter and that was the reason why she left him.

The victim has been taken to Stella Obasanjo motherless baby home for safety.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, Edward A. Ajogun, was said to have ordered the transfer of the suspect to anti-human trafficking and child labour unit of the state criminal investigation and intelligence department for an in-depth investigation and diligent prosecution.
