A 13-year old girl has narrated how her biological father, Stephen Chimaraobi, and his friend, Paul Oha, raped her for seven years in their Ojodu home in Lagos State, southwest Nigeria.
Following her revelation, the police at Grammar School Division, Ojodu, arrested her father and his friend.
Chimaraobi from Delta State has remained single after his wife left him, while Oha from Mbaise in Imo State, is married and has two kids.
The victim revealed that her 42-year old father and his friend started defiling her when she was six years old and continued till she became 13 without each of them knowing until she reported the matter to the police.
She said she did not know the damage they were doing to her until now that she became an emotional wreck.
The traumatized victim told the police that her mother left her in the care of his father at their home in Yetunde Morgan Estate, Ojodu, when she was six years old.
Chimaraobi told P.M.NEWS that he did not rape the victim as she claimed and said his daughter fabricated the allegation so that she will go back to her mother.
He said he married her mother and when the victim was six years, she abandoned him and the girl and left.
Chimaraobi said that since his estranged wife left, he has been taking care of the girl and she has just finished her JSS3, while her mother has been battling him to take the girl away.
He also said he did not know his friend, Oha, was sleeping with her until she said so at the police station.
The two men were charged with defilement and rape at the Family Court in Ikeja, yesterday. The matter was adjourned till 6 November while the suspects were remanded in Kirikiri Prisons.
