She had reportedly warned her father to desist from making moves to sleep with her by touching her private part because it was an abomination for him to even think and do so. But the father did not listen to her and continued to harass her sexually which made her to become restless at home.
According to Police sources, the victim was also ashamed to tell anybody even the members of her family what she was passing through from her own father.

She then went and reported her father to the Gender Section of the police who arrested and detained him at the Station. It was gathered that at the station, the father confessed that he was deeply in love with his daughter and always had the desire to sleep with her.
He denied ever having carnal knowledge of her but admitted touching her private part. He was brought and charged before Ogba Magistrates court for sexual assault by touching her daughter’s private part under the Criminal code.
He pleaded not guilty. Presiding Magistrate, Mrs Davis Abegunde admitted him on bail and remanded him in prison custody pending when he will perfect his bail condition.
