On Sunday, the Ogun State Police Command announced the arrest of Amoda Bola, a 49-year-old father who allegedly had carnal knowledge of his 14-year-old daughter and impregnated her.
Bola was also accused of inviting unidentified men to his home to defile his daughter and receiving payment from the men for his services.
SP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the state Police Public Relations Officer, said in a statement on Sunday that the suspect was apprehended after his daughter filed a complaint.
Oyeyemi stated that the victim reported to the Ode Remo Police Station that her father, with whom she had been living for several years, had carnal knowledge of her.
Oyeyemi, on the other hand, revealed that the suspect's confession during interrogation led to the arrest of five others who had slept with the victim on the father's invitation at various times.
"The suspects are Ahmed Ogunkoya, Muyiwa Adeoye, David Solaja, Emmanuel Olusanya, and Joshua Olaniran," the PPRO said. All of the suspects have confessed to having carnal knowledge of the 14-year-old girl and have paid her father.
"The victim, whose mother had divorced her father years before, had been living with her father, who had effectively turned her into a commercial prostitute." She was taken to a state hospital in Ishara-Remo, where her pregnancy was confirmed.
"The victim has insisted that her father is to blame for the pregnancy because he was the only person who slept with her during the time she became pregnant."
Oyeyemi stated that the state Commissioner of Police, Lanre Bankole, had ordered the immediate transfer of the suspects to the state Criminal Investigation Department's Anti Human Trafficking and Child Labour Unit for discreet investigation and possible prosecution.
