“The incident, according to the corps, happened to the daughter twice while she was 11 years old.
“The daughter said she reported to her mother but no action was taken,” the corps said.
The daughter, according to NSCDC, said her father sexually abused her again on August 9 while her mother was away at her paternal grandmother’s place.
“The daughter said her father woke her up at about 2:25 a.m to start touching her inappropriately after which he had carnal knowledge of her,” the corps said.
NSCDC said the suspect, in his statement, admitted committing the crime but, however, insisted that he had carnal knowledge of her daughter once.
“The victim’s mother, Mrs. Florence Ifeleka in her statement said she was scared to report the incident because her husband threatened to deal with her ruthlessly if she did, “ NSCDC said.
The Lagos State Commandant, Mr. Cyprian Otoibhi, while presenting the suspects to newsmen said, “the suspect will face the full wrath of the law as he would be handed over to the appropriate agency for further investigation and prosecution,”
