Kwara: Daughter sues father over sexual assault, threat to life

Rivers Assembly Crisis

One Simbiat Moshood has dragged her father, Moshood, before an Upper Àrea Court in Moro Local Government Area of Kwara State for sexually abusing her.

Simbiat alleged that the accused had been sexually assaulting her with a threat to incarcerate or kill her if she told anyone about the heinous act.

She disclosed that the abominable deed had become a normal routine for her father, an occurrence that she said contributed to her mother’s decision to abandon her after she divorced him.

“The act has become my father’s habit, I am his only daughter and that is why my mother has refused to return home after they divorced.

“My father’s second wife had once caught us in the act and do make jest of me and alleging ritualistic activity,” the complainant said.

Counsel to the accused, Barrister Toyin Onaolapo, prayed the court to grant his client bail.

Magistrate Abdul Yekeen in his ruling on the matter, granted the accused bail and adjourned the case to April 15, 2024
