Afeez Gbadamosi, a 38-year-old man, appeared before the Ikeja Sexual Offences and Domestic Violence Court as he was charged by the Lagos State Government for the alleged sexual molestation of his two underage sons, aged three and seven.
Gbadamosi is accused of committing four counts of sexual assault and indecent behavior, as stated by the state prosecuting counsel, Abimbola Abolade. The incidents reportedly occurred between 2021 and 2022, taking place in the Iyanamuda area of Agric in Ikorodu, Lagos State.
According to Abolade, the defendant sexually assaulted the boys by inserting his finger into their anus, indecently touched their genitals, pressed their buttocks, and even exposed them to sexual intercourse between himself and his wife.
