WHY AND HOW FATHERS SLEEP WITH THEIR DAUGHTERS

Spread the love


In recent times, some disturbing cases of fathers sleeping with their daughters have been recorded. At the moment, the ugly development happens frequently all over the country. All over the pages of newspapers and on radio/TV programmes, you read and hear with utmost shock, stories of celebrity fathers sleeping with their daughters.
Years back, this shameful and abominable act was heard more amongst the rich and mighty in the society, as they sleep with their daughters for money rituals and to get more powers, but they always get away with it as they are usually very influential in the society, so none of such cases ever became a court case. But lately, incest has suddenly become a common place among the middle and low class in the society. Child rape/sexual abuse of teenage girls has suddenly become one of the most mentioned case in the Court of Law today and quite a number of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO) and human right groups have sprung up to fight the course of these abused girls.
A recent case of a father sleeping with his own daughter was that of a 43-year old Policeman, Corporal Lanre Ramoni, attached to Agbara Divisional Police Headquarters in Ogun State,who was recently detained for having sex with his daughter for four years. He also aborted her pregnancy four times. The 19 year girl is an SSS 3 student and the only child of the father. It was gathered that Corporal Ramoni, has been having sex with his daughter since she was 15 years old. The cat was let out of the bag on a fateful
Monday morning when the girl got to the school with bruises all over her body and when a classmate of hers asked what happened, she opened up on what transpired between her and her father. The classmate on hearing this ran to one of the teachers who later told the principal of the school about it. Her father was invited to the school. On arrival, the girl confronted him right in the presence of the principal and the teachers. She accused her father of having sex with her several times and also showed all the love messages he sent to her phone. Two of the messages read: “I love you so much, you are good in bed than your mother,” and “Hope you haven’t told anybody that I am having sex with you?” Police authorities subsequently arrested the Corporal. He is currently undergoing trial.
There is also another case of 37 years old, Phillip Benson, who was alleged to have defiled his 12-year-old daughter and put her in the family way. The incident which happened at Ipakodo area of Ikorodu in Lagos saw Mr. Benson, a father of three, allegedly engaged in incest with his daughter in their two-room apartment. Benson in an attempt to abort the pregnancy gave his daughter concoctions made from gin and herbs. The victim’s female teacher noticed signs of pregnancy and queried her on how she got pregnant; she then revealed how her father had defiled her and went on to have carnal knowledge of her on different occasions.
The case was reported at the Ipakodo Police Station and when police officers interacted with her, it was discovered that the crime has been on in the last two years. This man has slept with his daughter repeatedly, eventually getting her to submit to his amorous assault.
Emmanuel Obot, 46 years, did not only rape his two daughters severally, but ended up impregnating one of them. Obot, who claimed to be a clearing and forwarding agent, and resides at 3 Jadesola Street, Mende, Maryland, Lagos State. In perpetrating the evil act, Obot warned his two daughters aged 22 and 24, that he would kill them, if they fail to give in to his incestuous desires. In one occasion, he willfully destroyed one of the girl’s skirt and blouse, valued at about N10, 000, in the process of forcefully trying to have sex with her. He impregnated one of the daughters and had her abort it. The other was beaten on many occasions for struggling with her father, thereby preventing him from sleeping with her. Obot has consequently been sentenced to seven years imprisonment, by an Ikeja Magistrate Court, presided over by Magistrate O.A Adedayo.
Many other cases of incest abound, with many of them not reported or heard. In many cultures all over the world, incest is a taboo, and it is seriously condemned. It is also a grievous crime in the eyes of God. Rape and Child Abuse are equally serious offences frowned at by Nigeria laws. Unfortunately, more and more fathers are still engaging in this ungodly act.
The question will then be, why do these men sleep with their own daughters? According what bebeakinboade.blogspot.com gathered, these incestuous relations are usually started and engaged in by the fathers involved to help them gain access to power and or make money. It is mostly used for diabolic purposes.Other reasons are psychological and spiritual.
According to a psychologist, Kemi Olujobi, “incest could be a result of psychological derailment on the part of the persons who indulge in it. The offender needs to be pitied and helped, because he has degenerated to the status of an animal. Such people, after serving their prison terms, or while in jail, should be visited by psychologists, who will properly bring them back from their state of derailment”
A cleric, Pastor Tunde Ewelamo, was spiritual about it when asked about his opinion on incest. “Any father who sleeps with his daughter have spiritual problem. It is either he has been bewitched by negative super forces to disgrace him before the people, or he belongs to a secret cult, which demands that for him to acquire a special spiritual power, or attain a certain position in life, he must sleep with his own blood, a daughter, to get that position.”
Another poser is, how do these fathers lure their own blood daughters to have sex with them? Bebeakinboade.blogspot.com also gathered that some of them hypnotise these innocent girls in order to sleep with them. You have instances of these men giving the daughters kolanut to chew, some give them some special black soap to bath with, among other things, after which the girl looses consciousness and the evil deed is done. Some even wipe their daughters with a special white handkerchief. Some fathers also make their daughters swear to an oath that the day they reveal to anyone, they will die. Some of them offer the girls drugged drinks, which make them become weak after drinking. Some also enticed with money and promises to spoil them with cash and gift if they keep the relationship to themselves.
Majority of these fathers forcefully rape their daughters behind closed doors. They will beat them until they are weak and forcefully deflower them. Most times, the cases always come into the open if they are eventually caught in the act, the girl becomes pregnant or a life threatening issue arises; otherwise, even the molested girls keep the issue to themselves for a long time without telling anyone.
The aftermath effect, especially psychological, of this act goes a long way in ruining the girls’ future. It can haunt these abused girls for life. Many of them will never be able to have a healthy relationship with a man after their father ruined their lives Many will go through years of counseling, to remove the hurt and anguish their fathers have caused them.
