Incredible! A Father Sexually Defiles His 6-Year-Old Daughter And Blames It On His Wife
Every child needs protection from harm but it is sad when those who should protect her, are the very ones she needs to be protected from.
A 30-year-old Katsina man who defiled his six-year-old biological daughter in his house at London Street, Minna, Niger state capital has been arrested by the State’s police command.
Bashiru Audu’s arrest came after neighbours observed that the victim was walking awkwardly. It was gathered that upon interrogation, they were told by the girl that her father “put something in her private part.”
ThisDayLive reports that the randy father on July 16, sneaked into the children’s room and had sex with his daughter, while his wife was away to their home town, Daura, Katsina State.
According to Audu, his wife is to blame for defiling their daughter as she was not always around whenever he need sex. He added that his wife travels a lot and he had to sleep with his daughter when the urge to have sex became very strong.
