Victor Emafolomi, a 40-year-old man, has been detained by the police for allegedly raping and impregnating his wife’s daughter.
According to Punch Metro, the suspect was apprehended on Sunday, October 30, by the police from the Agbado division after the mother of the victim reported the case.
Emafolomi lived with his wife and stepdaughter on Olukososi street, Jafa, Agbado, in Ifo local government area of Ogun state.
The 40-year-old was said to have raped his step daughter on two occasions in October, threatening to kill her if she informed her mother.
It was gathered that the first time she was at a shop where she was learning hairdressing within the community when her stepfather called her on the telephone to come home to prepare lunch for him.
While the young girl was immersed in the cooking, Emafolomi reportedly descended on her and dragged her into the bedroom.
She said: “That afternoon, he was drunk. He beat me up when I resisted. I explained to him that he was like a father to me, but he didn’t listen. He used a pillow to cover my mouth and raped me. He said he would kill me if I told my mother about the rape.
“Two days after, he had sex with me again. That evening, he beat me up because I insisted that I would tell my mother when she came back from work. He went out and came back with two men after about 30 minutes. The men stared at me and left. He said they would be monitoring my movement and that if I reveal what he did to me, they would kill me.”
The girl’s mother speaking to Punch Metro said she was abreast of the time when her daughter usually menstruated and became worried last Tuesday, October 24, when she did not.
“I took her to a clinic in our area and it was confirmed that she was pregnant. I begged her to tell me who impregnated her, but she refused,” the mother added.
After much pestering, Keji was said to have confided in her mother, who reportedly passed out afterwards.
“I was very shocked, but I could not fault the revelation because my husband had abandoned home for some days and there was no misunderstanding between us. I think it was because of what he did,” she added.
However, the suspect, who hails from Delta State, refuted the allegations, saying: “I am a driver. I left home because my wife is stubborn; she doesn’t take corrections. I left home to punish her so that she would change for better.
“I never had sex with her daughter and I didn’t know anything about the pregnancy. I don’t want it aborted. When she is delivered of the baby, we will carry out a DNA test on the baby.”
ASP Ambibola Oyeyemi, the Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer PPRO), said the case would be transferred to the command’s headquarters in Eleweran, Abeokuta, for further investigation.
