Father denies raping own child, daughter insists

Kayode however said his daughter cooked up the allegation because he reprimanded her of her promiscuous lifestyle.

“She is lying. She is using this as a ploy to cover up her promiscuity, which I scolded her for,” the father allegedly told police investigators.

Speaking on the matter, Omolola Odutola, spokesperson for the Ogun police command, Kayode had been arrested.
