How my dad deflowered me at 10, impregnated by two men at 14 – Teenage girl
A bricklayer and an operator of a commercial motorcycle otherwise called okada have been arrested for allegedly ‘raping’ and impregnating a 14-year-old teenager in Ibadan, Oyo State, reports KUNLE AKINRINADE.
Operatives of a neighbourhood security outfit, Oluyole Security Network, penultimate Sunday arrested Sodeeq Ojediran, one of the two suspects allegedly responsible for raping and impregnating a 14-year-old girl.
The 30-year-old bricklayer, who admitted forcibly sleeping with the girl, said he tricked her to his house where he raped her.
Also explaining his complicity in the saga, the second suspect, 27-year-old Okebukola, a commercial motorcycle operator, said: “I met Lateefat in December 2023 and asked her to be my girlfriend.
“She declined my request to know her parents and I took her to my house where she spent one week with me.
“My landlord was not happy about the fact that she is a teenager. So he asked me to send her away from my house.
“She came back to me two Sundays ago and I made love to her again.
“I didn’t ask for her hand in marriage and I did not deflower her at all, but I slept with her.
“I am an okada operator and she boarded my motorbike in Ayegun area of Ibadan.
“She was to pay N300 as fare but instead, she paid me N200. I stirred a conversation with her and collected her mobile phone number.
“Three days later, I told her to come with me to a church for prayers. But instead of taking her to a church, I took her to my house where I slept with her.

“However, I did not sleep with her every day, but she is carrying a two-month pregnancy.”
Sharing her story, the victim said she stopped schooling after her father died.
She recalled that her father was the first to sleep with her when she was younger, after which she left home.
She said: “I am 14 years old. My father is late. I am the third child in a family of seven.
“I was in Primary 6 when my father died and I stopped going to school since then.
“My mother is the one that ruined my life, because after my father was buried, everyone told my mother to use part of the cash gifts given to her by sympathisers to send me to school but she refused.
“Instead, she took me to the home of her first child from her previous marriage.
“I met an old woman at my aunt’s place and I told my aunt that I would like to live with the woman. The woman accepted me.
“She however accused me of stealing her N3000. Hence I ran away from her apartment in Ibadan.
“My mother is responsible for my miserable life because she refused to send me to school.
“My father was a Fuji musician popularly known as Easy in his lifetime. He was a flirt and was fond of sleeping with many women.
“On a certain day, when he had no woman to sleep with, my father raped me.
“Our neighbours did not believe me when I raised the alarm that my father was sleeping with me.
“My maternal relatives cautioned me against reporting the matter to the police or bringing it to public’s attention through the media.
“On a certain day when I did not allow my father to make love to me, he hit me in the legs with a big stone.
“Our neighbours confronted him, saying that he wanted to kill me because I refused him sex.
“He left home for a show in Lagos, and when he returned, he rained curses on me and said he did not want to see me in his house again, but our neighbours pleaded with him not to send me out of his home.
“After that, he slept with me again to the point that I could not walk or move my body.
“I was only 10 years old when my father started sleeping with me and his family members did not believe me when I told them what he was doing to me.

“I even reported to a policeman, thinking he could help me but the policeman did not believe me. He felt that I was lying against my father.
“My travails were the reasons I decided that I would punish my mother if I eventually make it in life, because she did not take care of me and was responsible for my current situation.
“My father’s second wife brought me to Lagos and was using me as a young Osun deity worshipper to beg for money on the roadside. I thereafter returned to Ibadan.
“I was an apprentice tailor while I was living with my sister. One day, I was running errands for my boss when I met Dayo who lied to me that he was taking me to a church but instead took me to his home and made love to me shortly after we ate dinner.
“He made love to me repeatedly for three days.
“Shortly after our initial encounter, Dayo accosted me while I was visiting my grandmother, and from there we went to his house where I met his friends, including Sodeeq, who subsequently slept with me once after which Dayo again slept with me.
“A neighbour of my mother, who is a nurse, has run a test on me and confirmed that I am carrying a two-month pregnancy.”
In her explanation, Lateefat’s mother, Aminat Alimi, said her daughter ran away from home and admitted not being responsible in taking care of her.
She said: “I am 35 years old and I am from the Kobomoje area of Ibadan. I used to sell salt.
“I started working as a non-teaching staff at a primary school in the Fatusi area of Ibadan when my business crashed.
“I have seven children with three different men. I had three children with my first husband, Biliaminu; two with Tobi, my second husband, and three with Fatai, my third husband.
“Lateefat was living with me before she fled my home and I have been looking for her, although I did not inform the police or any security agency.
“I know I am guilty, but I am pleading for mercy.”

200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
200,000 repentant terrorists surrender, drop arms in North East – CDS
The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has disclosed that about 200,000 repentant terrorists have so far dropped their arms and surrendered to troops in the North East, noting that the twin strategy of kinetic and non-kinetic operations was responsible for this achievement.
The CDS made this known at the Security and Justice Symposium organised by the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) in collaboration with the British High Commission, which began at the National Counterterrorism Centre in Abuja on Tuesday.
He disclosed that the theme of the symposium, ”Securing Peace, Ensuring Justice, Protection, Conduct, and Accountability,” speaks volumes about the deluge of security challenges the armed forces and security agencies are facing.
His words, “All the challenges we are facing today have to do with fairness, equity, justice, and accountability.
“There will not be peace without justice, equity, fairness, and accountability. In our operations, we are conducting both kinetic and non-kinetic strategies, which have to a large extent yielded significant successes, and we want to particularly thank the National Security Adviser for his great support in this regard.
“Nigeria is going through so many challenges, and we feel we’re able to address this, and everybody has a sense of belonging. A lot of the security challenges we are having, we are sure, will go down. I want to thank the National Security Advisor for all the support he’s given us, both the kinetic and the non-kinetic.
“We have said it; the kinetic aspect is just less than 30%. The non-kinetic has a lot to play. The non-kinetic, because when you have democracy, people must have the evidence of democracy. As long as it tells people to sleep well and be peaceful, and they are hungry, their children cannot eat, and all this creates more problems.
