After interrogating her son, it was discovered that her son was not responsible for the pregnancy.
Upon the report, the victim who is five months pregnant was invited, and when she got to the station, she confided in the police that though Michael Idowu slept with her in December 2022, it was her father Abiodun Oladapo who is responsible for her pregnancy, according to the statement issued by SP Abimbola Oyeyemi, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Ogun State.
She stated further that her father had been sleeping with her since February 2022 with threats to kill her if she informed anybody about it.
According to the victim, when it was discovered that she is pregnant, her father asked her to lie against Michael Idowu of being responsible for the pregnancy.
Part of the statement reads, “Upon her confession, the DPO Mowe division, SP Folake Afeniforo, detailed detectives to go after the randy father, and he was subsequently arrested.
“On interrogation, the suspect confessed to the crime but blamed it on the devil.
“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect who had long separated with the victim’s mother took custody of the girl when her mother remarried and they have been living together since then.
“Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, CP Frank Mba, has directed that the suspect be transferred to State Criminal Investigation Departments for further investigation and possible prosecution.”
