Oluwadamilare Ewedemi, a man from Ifo Local Government Area in Ogun State, has been detained by state police officials for allegedly sexually assaulting and impregnating his daughter five times and getting illegal abortions for the unlucky 21-year-old.
The victim, whose name was not revealed, said that her father had sexually abused her since 2019, with the suspect reportedly having five unlawful abortions for her.
The victim had reportedly lost her mother as an infant, after which her father placed her in a motherless home in Ikeja, Lagos State, and later took her to Ijebu Ode in 2019 under the pretence of guardianship.
She alleged that her father began sexually abusing her in 2019 and continued the abuse over several years, leading to five pregnancies, which he helped terminate.
When contacted, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, spokesperson for the state police command, verified the suspect’s arrest on Monday.
Babaseyi stated that the victim claimed to have fled her father’s home on Sunday, February 1, 2026, owing to excessive abuse and relocated to a church in Pakoto mountain.
He explained that the 21-year-old then reported her father’s callous actions to the police officers at Ifo.
