Ogun State Police Command has confirmed the arrest of 44-year-old Pastor Oluwafemi Oyebola of the Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Ogo Oluwa parish in Ogun state.
Pastor Oyebola was arrested for allegedly raping his daughter on several occasions, getting her pregnant three times and forcing her to go through abortions each time.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, who disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday, said the randy pastor was arrested following a complaint by his 24-year-old daughter.
The girl reported at the Owode-Egbado divisional headquarters that her father has been forcefully having carnal knowledge of her since 2015 shortly after the demise of her mother.
She told the Police that she got pregnant for her father three times but he took her to a nurse where those pregnancies were terminated.
The distraughted daughter said after the third pregnancy was terminated, her father did family planning for her so as not to get pregnant any longer.
She got tired of his evil act and summoned the courage to report him at an NGO, Advocacy For Children And Vulnerable Persons Network who led her to the police station.
Upon receiving the report, Oyeyemi said the pastor was immediately arrested at his house and he made a confessional statement that all that his daughter said was nothing but the whole truth.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Kenneth Ebrimson, has ordered the immediate transfer of the suspect to the Anti-human Trafficking and Child Labour Unit of the state Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department (SCIID) for further investigation and prosecution.
Meanwhile, KanyiDaily had published a video that shows the moment a man’s marriage proposed to his girlfriend during a church service was turned down by her father.
