The International Federation of Female Lawyers (FIDA), have today the 24th of May called on the attention of journalists, of one Mr. Michael Akpan, a middle aged man who is presently in the custody of the state criminal investigation department of police in Port Harcourt, for allegedly defiling four of his daughters including his two years old daughter.
Mrs. Fortune, the proprietress of the school the girls attend, reported the matter to the police, she said one of the girls disclosed to her, that their father had been defiling them ( the girl and her sister's) for the past two years and threatened to deal with her if she tells anyone.
On her part, the mother of the girls Mrs. Grace Akpan, also disclosed to journalists, that her husband Mr. Michael Akpan beats the eldest daughter who is 16 years old each time she refuses him sex. Mrs. Akpan also said she had reported the incessant defiling of her daughters by her husband to the relatives of her husband severally, but all fell on deaf ears.
An executive of the International Federation of Female Lawyers, Rivers State Branch, Fortune Ada-Nda who is expected to prosecute the matter in court confirmed all medical proofs that the girls had been defiled.
Ada-Nda said the 11-year old girl is now ovulating as a result of an incessant defilement by her father.
As at the time of filing in this report, the matter was yet to be in court
