Tuesday, October 7, 2025 - A Nigerian dad is currently on the run after he impregnated his own daughter in the Otulu area of Delta state.
Activist, Harrison Gwamnishu, who shared the story online,
said the victim, now carrying her father’s child, is currently safe and under
the care of his NGO.
‘’Incest,
which involves sexu@l relations between close blood relatives, is a serious
criminal offence under Nigerian law. According to Section 214 and 390 of the
Criminal Code Act (applicable in Southern Nigeria), any person who engages in
incest commits a felony and faces imprisonment for up to seven years or more,
depending on the circumstances. In addition, if the victim is under 18 years
old, the offender may be charged with defilement or rape, which attracts a life
imprisonment sentence under Section 218 of the Criminal Code or Section 31 of
the Child Rights Act.''
Harrison called on the authorities to immediately arrest and
prosecute the suspect to ensure justice for the survivor and protect other
potential victims.
Harrison mentioned that the survivor and her children are
currently receiving support and temporary shelter through our volunteer
network.
