Asked why she did not take steps to protect her daughter from her husband, the woman said she was scared, adding that he threatened to deal with them should anyone hear of it.

She further claimed she did not belief her daughter when she told her in 2016 that her father was molesting her.

The woman said: “I was not around because I lost my child and went to my mother-in-law’s house. It was when I came back that my daughter again said her father had slept with her. I confided in my sister and she insisted we must report it.

“It was my sister who reported the matter at Ojo Division of NSCDC on Friday.

“I woke her and asked what that was. I told her she has started sleeping with men. She denied it and said she was having Candida.

“I asked her how she knew it was Candida and that I wanted to inspect it. That was how I put my hand in it and then I penetrated her. It was only on August 9 that I did it, I have not done it before. It was alcohol that caused it,” he said.

Parading the suspect, Commandant NSCDC Cyprian Otoibhi said he would be handed over to the Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team (DSVRT) for further investigation and prosecution.

He said: “The suspect will face the full wrath of the law and will be handed over to DSVRT for further investigation and prosecution.
