A 14-year old girl has narrated how her biological father, Mr Johnson Okon, engaged her in a sex romp, she lost her virginity, her mother asked her to accept her fate and not disclose what happened. P.M.EXPRESS reports that the incident happened at Charismatic Road in Abule, Berger of Ikorodu area of Lagos where they reside.
It was gathered that the action by her father got her depressed and traumatized as she felt that it was abominable for a father to sleep with his daughter and her own mother failed to come to her rescue.
With the trauma in mind, out of frustration the victim ran away from home because her mother did render any help the time she needed her most.
This was confirmed by the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Imohimi Edgal, at the State Command.
The police boss said that the Command’s Gender Section was investigating Mr. Okon over the defilement.
He said the 58-year old Okon who was a security man and motorcycle operator defiled the victim who reported the assault to her mother but she did not believe her and warned her not to tell anyone about it.
Edgal said that the victim ran away from home because of her mother’s inaction and sought refuge in her father’s friend’s home.
The matter was reported to the police; Okon was arrested and detained for investigation. The daughter has been referred to Mirabel Centre where she is undergoing treatment and rehabilitation.
