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.”

EFCC arrests ex-NCMB boss over $35m energy project fraud

EFCC arrests ex-NCMB boss over $35m energy project fraud

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) told FIJ that they have arrested Timber Wabote, the former executive secretary of the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCMB), on the grounds of a failed $35 million Bayelsa refinery project fraud.

Dele Oyewale, the EFCC’s spokesperson, confirmed this to FIJ on Thursday.

“It is true,” Oyewale responded to FIJ’s inquiries.

Wabote is accused of misappropriating public funds for a refinery project that should have improved local energy production.

Vanguard reported that the NCDMB under Wabote paid $35 million to support the development of energy infrastructure in the Brass Local Government Area of Bayelsa, yet there was nothing to show for it.

The EFCC picked Wabote up following the arrest of Akintoye Adeoye Akindele, the Managing Director of Atlantic International Refinery and Petrochemical Limited, for alleged misappropriation, money laundering and diversion of $35 million in public funds.

“NCDMB under the watch of Wabote allegedly paid the $35 million to Akindele to build a 2,000 barrel per day (BPD), refinery, jetty, gas plant, power plant, data centre and tank farm at Brass free trade zone (FTZ), Okpoama Community in Brass LGA of Bayelsa State,” a source with the EFCC had explained.

Since December 2020 when the payments were made, Akindele abandoned the project with little or nothing to show for the huge sum he received.

Preliminary investigations showed that Wabote’s NCDMB financed 17 different projects, including the 2,000 BPD refinery in Brass LGA.

There has been a series of public fund misappropriation cases in the energy sector in recent times.

FIJ earlier reported that members of the House of Representatives summoned three ministers to defend how over $2 billion was spent on renewable energy with not much to show for it.

A recent FIJ report also recently detailed how residents of Yenagoa, the capital of Bayelsa, have not had power in their homes since July due to the vandalisation of the Ahoada-Yenagoa transmission towers caused by unidentified persons.

The Bayelsa state government told FIJ it was the federal government’s responsibility to provide electricity for residents. The state has no renewable energy options reliable enough to power its capital despite the multi-million-dollar NCMB energy project.

Transparency in the energy sector has become necessary at a time when Nigerians have suffered power instability due to frequent grid collapses.

Court adjourns Yahaya Bello’s trial till Nov 27

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has requested an adjournment in the new case against the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, stating that the 30-day window for the previously issued summons is still active.

The commission has granted administrative bail to his co-defendants, Umar Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu, and asked the court for an extension of time for Bello to appear.

At the resumed hearing before Justice Maryann Anenih of the Federal Capital Territory High Court, Abuja, EFCC Counsel Jamiu Agoro noted that the court’s order from October 3rd had not yet expired.

“In that wise, we feel it will not be appropriate for us to take proceedings while that 30 days is still running. So we have discussed and agreed to come back on the 27th day of November, 2024, my lord,” he told the court.

He also mentioned that the previously set date of November 20th was not convenient for the prosecution counsels.

Counsel to the second defendant, Aliyu Saiki, SAN, confirmed that his client had been granted administrative bail by the prosecution and had no objection to the adjournment request. The third defendant’s counsel, ZE Abass, concurred.

The prosecution counsel also requested the court to allow the notice of hearing to be pasted on the last known address of the first defendant.

After hearing from all counsels, the judge granted the EFCC’s application for adjournment and the issuance of the hearing notice.

“I have considered the application for adjournment by the complainant and issuance of hearing notice and the submission by the second and third defendants. The application is granted,” she said.

Justice Anenih then adjourned the case to November 27th for arraignment.

The former governor, alongside Umar Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu, are being prosecuted as 1st to 3rd defendants, respectively, in a fresh 16-count charge instituted against them by the EFCC.
