52-year-old Ikhine was arrested forcefully having unlawful carnal knowledge of his 18-year-old biological daughter, whose name the police authorities are keeping under wraps.
"The suspect, who resides at No 6, Iyaniwura Street, Joju Area of Sango Ota, was arrested following a report by one Yemisi Ashade who came to the station with the victim and complained that the victim came to her to report how her father has been abusing her sexually whenever she is alone at home with threats to deal with her if she dares tell anyone about it", DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, the Command's spokesman stated.
Oyeyemi also stated that the victim confided in Ashade when she could no longer bear the sexual assault.
He went further that "upon the report, the DPO, Sango Ota, CSP Godwin Idehai detailed his detectives to the scene where the randy father was promptly arrested.
On interrogation, he made a confessional statement that he has been having carnal knowledge of the victim long before now since he has separated with his wife.
The victim who claimed to be the only girl amongst the three children of her father explained how the suspect had been sleeping with her whenever her two brothers were not around with threat, but when she could not bear it anymore, she reported to their neighbour who brought her to the station to report".
The police command also revealed that the victim was taken to the General Hospital where it was confirmed that she is already pregnant for her father.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Bashir Makama has ordered for the immediate transfer of the suspect to the Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Labour Unit of the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department for further investigation and prosecution.
