A 42-year old man, Taofeek Oyeyemi, has been arrested by the Police for allegedly impregnating his 16-year old biological daughter and damaging her womb while attempting to abort the pregnancy through a quack doctor which resulted in complication.

P.M.EXPRESS reports as disclosed by the Ogun State Police Command’s spokesperson, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, who said that the victim had been subjected to constant bleeding which has now endangered her life.

He said that the suspect was arrested following a complaint from the mother of the victim who reported at Ewekoro Police Station that her daughter was impregnated by her father, who also took her to a quack medical practitioner for abortion.

The Police said the complainant further explained that since the abortion was carried out, the victim has been bleeding. He said this led to the arrest of the suspect.

The suspect is being investigated and would be prosecuted, Oyeyemi stated.
