Man arrested for impregnating his daughter, procuring abortion for her and defiling a baby

Kennedy Michael, 36, from Akwa Ibom State, has been arrested for allegedly raping his teenage daughter, Maria, and attempting to abort the resulting pregnancy, New Telegraph reports. He was arrested alongside his girlfriend, Ndukwe Ijeoma, for assisting in procuring abortion for the girl.



Michael, who resides at No. 5 Kode Street, Mende, Maryland, Lagos, was also accused of once poking his finger into the private part of his neighbour’s 18-month-old baby girl.

He was arrested after his neighbour, Uche, whose child was reportedly violated, reported the matter, on discovering that Ijeoma Ndukwe, Michael’s lover, assisted in procuring abortion for Maria.

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Dolapo Badmos, however said investigations showed that Michael started having sexual intercourse with his daughter since 2013, until she got pregnant. According to her, Maria is 13, while Michael started sleeping with her when she was 10. .

She added: “However, at the discovery of the pregnancy, Michael, and Ijeoma quickly took Maria for abortion. All the accomplices, including the nurse, are undergoing interrogation while the victim, Maria, is under protective custody in a shelter. .

At the conclusion of investigation, the suspects will be charged to court.” Michael and Maria’s mum separated long ago. After the separation, he brought her to Lagos. Residents alleged that Michael was fond of molesting children.
