Punch reports that Ladoja, who is a bricklayer has always been in the eyes of other tenants because they all believe he sleeps with his first daughter, Ife, who is 22 years of age.some of them however spoke with Punch anonymously.
The report which includes lots of accusations and counter accusations, is said to have involved many of the co-tenants confronting the bricklayer a number of times but his denial made many believe that it was truly a figment of their imaginations until they noticed the young girl’s tummy protruding which was followed by bleeding.
“We noticed over the last few months that Ife’s tummy was growing bigger. We knew something was wrong but one day, we noticed that she was bleeding,” a neighbor who spoke on condition of anonymity, said. One of the occupants of the house alleged that Ladoja and the girl’s mother might have colluded to abort Ife’s pregnancy. Making it known why she thinks the mother of the young girl might be involved in the matter, the neighbor said:
“He beats his wife regularly. The woman dare not talk. In fact, when she was asked about it, she flatly denied the allegations. “Everybody in the compound knew what was going on. So, the girl was kept indoors for about a week. We noticed that she fainted a few times when she was kept at home. So, they rushed her to the hospital.
“We asked the man where he took the girl to but he said she had been taken to a hospital because she was ill but would not disclose where. How can we report to the police when we have not been able to catch him on top of his daughter?”“Sometimes, he would send his other children out of the house, and when we ask the children why, they tell us that their father is inside with their elder sister and had asked them to go play outside,” one of the tenants said.
Although the tenants have not been able to produce evidences to buttress their claims aside from the observations, It was made known that the man was accused of doing same where he was living before he moved to this present apartment he is living with his wife and 7 children.
When one of his former neighbors on 4, Ajibola Street was contacted, the former tenant who like the rest, pleaded anonymity, alleged that Ladoja had been suspected to be sleeping with his daughter when he was living there for a long time before he moved to the present apartment.
“Do you expect the wife to tell you the truth? She is just a poor woman who is helpless and does not want to put her husband in trouble. He was always locked up with the girl while the other children stayed outside when we were living together. He always denied sleeping with the girl.“But the girl was always moody. She cried sometimes. When we asked what was wrong with her, she would never say it,” he said.
If its true both parents have failed the child, mom for be a coward and dad for being an animal.
