A 40-year-old man, who allegedly impregnated his 12-year-old daughter, has promised to father the child if her daughter is delivered safely. Philip Ben, a native of Itam in Akwa Ibom State is being interrogated at the State Criminal Investigations Department (SCID), Panti, Yaba, Lagos.
The suspect and his daughter (names withheld) accused each other of being the mastermind of the heinous act.
While Philip claimed his daughter initiated the amorous affairs, the daughter claimed her father started it.
The suspect shocked detectives quizzing him when he promised to father the child from his daughter because his Christian faith forbids abortion.
Giving a graphic account on how the incest started, the man confessed that, “one day, I came back from work and I met my daughter naked. As I was looking and admiring her, my manhood erected and I could not control myself anymore. I started caressing her but she did not resist me, so, we started the act.”
The man who denied abusing the girl, said, “I enjoyed it and she did. We did it four times and the last one was in March.”
He said he would father the child from her daughter even though it was an abomination in their village. “Yes it is abomination in my town but my Christian faith forbids abortion. I will not want my daughter whom I love to die.”
However, his daughter who countered his father’s claim said one day his father came back from work and offered her a drink. “After drinking, I became very weak and I slept off but I noticed that I was being raped by my father.”
The girl said: “My father deflowered me. After disvirgining me, he met me the following day and begged me not to report what happened to anybody. I had no one to report to because my mother is not living with us.”
She said she had lost count of how many times her father slept with her. “I swear, I do not know any other man. My father is the only man I know, he is the man that impregnated me.”
The little girl said she had no plan concerning the baby in her womb. “If my father insists that I will keep it for him, I have no option. Let him do whatever that pleases him. He did it, so let him say what will happen.”
When she was asked how many times the father made love to her, the primary six school girl said: “I have lost count on how many times he did it. It was a daily affair for about two years now.”
However, Lagos State Police Spokesman, Mr. Frank Mba, who described the act as a clear case of child abuse and incest said the police were still investigating the case. “But it is an aberration for a man to sleep with his own daughter,” he said.
