65-yr-old man, 60-yr-old brother allegedly rape teen stepdaughter, infect womb
A 65-year-old man, Waheed Kareem, has been arrested and is currently detained at the Oyo State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for allegedly sexually assaulting a 15-year-old girl.
Kareem, an indigene of Abeokuta in Ogun State, alongside his 60 years old younger brother, Rasheed (now at large), assaulted his step-daughter at Olude, Apata in Ibadan, Ido Local Government Area of Oyo.
It was further learnt that the teenager (name withheld), who is a JSS one student of a government-owned secondary school in the LGA, was earlier severely abused by her biological father from the age of two years old.
An impeccable source said the incident took several days before the case was eventually reported to the police.
Narrating her ordeal, the victim said she started experiencing sexual abuse at the age of two when her biological father started having carnal knowledge of her after her mother, Abiodun Kareem, moved out of her matrimonial home leaving her with her father. She added that the sexual assault continued till she was eight years.
She said it was easy for her father to carry out the vicious act because they were staying alone.
While explaining how the cat was let out of the bag, the victim said her maternal grandmother paid her an impromptu visit and she told her her ordeal for six years.

The case was then reported at Isabo Police Station in Abeokuta, Ogun State and the father was arrested and kept in custody for four years awaiting trial but unfortunately died in prison.
Narrating her present predicament, she alleged that the 65-year-old stepfather, Kareem, continued from where her father stopped and always had sex with her weekly while his younger brother, Rasheed, popularly called Onaala had sex with her every day.
She said she did not inform her mother because the man was threatening to kill her alongside her mother hence the reason why she kept it secret since 2021.
It was further gathered that a neighbour noticed that she was having her menstrual flow for 16 days every month as against the normal three to five days.
This prompted her mother to take her to a private hospital where it was diagnosed that her womb had been infected.
Confirming the allegation, the 35-year-old mother of the victim, Abiodun, said she accosted her husband but had to keep mute as she had no financial means to take care of the three children ages six, four and two birthed for the man.

At a press briefing in Kano, Rimin Gado stressed that the PCACC has a dual mandate; combating corruption and serving as an ombudsman. He stated that it will not remain passive in the face of unjustified price hikes on essential goods.
“We have been monitoring price increases for essential items and investigating whether these increases are justified. We are also identifying those responsible for any arbitrary price hikes,” Rimin Gado explained.
He assured that the commission will take necessary legal actions to address the rising cost of bread.

Man impregnates 16-year-old sister-in-law in Anambra
A 41-year-old man, identified as Nwalobi Fredrick, has been arrested for allegedly impregnating his 16-year-old sister-in-law(name withheld) in Ekwulobia, Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State.
Nwalobi, an artisan who hails from Ebonyi State, was arrested by security operatives on Thursday, after the family of the girl reported the incident at the office of the Anambra State Ministry of Women and Social Welfare in Awka.
The suspect, who was said to be newly remarried in April after the death of his first wife, blamed the devil for his action.
This development was disclosed in a statement on Thursday by Chidinmma Ikeanyionwu, the media aide to the Anambra State Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Ify Obinabo.
When interrogated, the suspect said he didn’t have money to take care of the girl since he now had his own family.
The statement read, “During interrogation, the 16-year-old girl revealed that the incident started in late January when she was brought to be kept in the custody of her in-law to enable her to finish her secondary education since the demise of her mother.

“She explained that it was just a day after settling in his house that Mr. Nwalobi first had carnal knowledge of her and ever since, has been having his way with her body.
“Upon further interrogation, she revealed that she was already four months gone, and ever since she became pregnant, her in-law had refused to take responsibility for putting her in a family way.
“Meanwhile, the 41-year-old suspect, who remarried in April after the death of his first wife, says he doesn’t have money to take care of the girl since he now has his own family.”
Ikeanyionwu added that despite the suspect’s pleas, Obinabo handed him over to the Divisional Police in Ekwulobia for further investigation.
Obinabo vowed to get to the root of the matter to ensure justice for the victim to serve as a deterrent to others who are into such acts.
