The Rivers State Police Command have arrested a 47-year-old father, Eromosele Muhmud, for allegedly impregnating his 16-year-old daughter.
.
.
The suspect, who was paraded on Thursday, said he has been sleeping with his daughter since 2017, when she was 12-year-old.
.
.
“This is a battle I have tried to fight over the years and it seems to be much bigger than me. I am not going to withdraw any fact or truth as far as this case is concerned.
.
.
If this is the only way my daughter can be liberated if I go to prison, then it is good. My happiness is that I am relieved even as I speak to you now.
.
.
I can’t really remember when it started, but like I told you, it’s more of a spiritual thing. It is very unusual for a father to be sleeping with his own daughter.
.
.
I am not a party to abortion, so whatever it is, the social welfare people and other government officials involved in this matter know the best way to handle this pregnancy; as a father, I cannot support abortion for my daughter, what if anything happens to her in the process.
.
.
I don’t rape her regularly; it happens once or twice in a year; she used to be very cooperative, even when I don’t want it, she tries to force herself on me.”
.
.
When questioned, his daughter told officials of the Rivers State Ministry of Social Welfare and Rehabilitations that her father always forced himself on her whenever he pleases him.
.
.
“It was my father who impregnated me; he started having sex with me when I was 12-year-old till now.
.
.
The first time he came and lay with me on the bed, when I tried to scream, he told me to shut up that my mates were doing the same thing and anytime I refused to allow him, he would not buy anything for me and he would refuse to pay my school fees,” she said.
