The police in Ogun state has arrested a 41-year-old man, Sikiru Odejide for  raping his 13-year-old daughter repeatedly.


Odejide was arrested at his  Onihale area of IFO Local Government Area of the state by  detectives from the Sango Police Station following a complaint from the girl’s mother who has been separated from him some years ago.

In a statement by the Police Public Relations Officers, Abimbola Oyeyemi, he said  the mother of the victim reported the matter at the Sango Police station  that her daughter came  to Ijeshatedo area of Lagos to inform her that the suspect was  having steady sex with her since December 2016.

Abimbola added that the suspect was also in the habit of threatening his daughter with death if she dares tell anybody about the incestuous act, prompting the little girl to run to her mother when she could no longer endure the frequent sexual abuse.

According to the Police Public Relations Officer, the suspect had owned up to the committing the alleged crime but attributed it to Satan.
