Ekiti State Police Command has arrested a 52-year-old man, Noel Davis, for molesting and impregnating his 12-year-old daughter.
Noel Davis, a Staff of the Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti (EKSU), was arrested after his 12-year-old daughter confided in her school teacher during a class lesson on sex education.
The young girl told the teacher that the molestation started few years ago, when her father told her about how special she meant to him and started caressing her Bosom.
She said it went on like that for some months before he began to have sex with her.
The suspect, a Sierra Leonean citizen was immediately picked up on the order of the chairperson of Federation of Women Lawyer FIDA, Mrs Seyi Ojo who was contacted by the school management.
Mrs Ojo who described that act as despicable and intolerable handed him over to the police for further investigation and prosecution.
In an interview, the suspect Noel Davis said he did the act out of foolishness and pleaded for forgiveness.
He said his wife had sometimes got to know about the act but it was settled amicably among the family.
At the moment, the lady who is pregnant, has been taken to the hospital for further examinations.
