The Ondo State Police Command have arrested a 38-year-old man, Sunday Udoh for Impregnating his 15-year-old daughter in Ile-Oluji/Oke-Igbo Local Government Area of the state.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, SP Funmilayo Odunlami, in a statement made available to journalists yesterday, explained that Udoh was arrested while attempting to procure abortion for his daughter at a healthcare centre in Ile-Oluji.

She said: “On 26th of April, 2022, policemen attached to Ile-Oluji Division received a complaint of an attempt to procure abortion by one Sunday Udoh ‘m’, Aged 38, at a health care centre in Ile-Oluji.

“During investigation, it was revealed that the suspect was attempting to procure abortion for her daughter (Name withheld) of about 15 years old whom he has been having sexual intercourse with.

“The case is currently being handled by the Gender Office of the State Criminal Investigation Department in Akure.”

This comes two weeks after the command arrested a 28-year-old printer, Tolulope Akinyemi, for unlawfully and indecently assaulting his 17-year-old sister (names withheld), at his backyard.

Tolulope had been allegedly having sexual intercourse with the victim, who happens to be his step-sister, while he had impregnated her twice and aborted for her.
