26-Year-Old Man Allegedly Impregnates His 16-Year-Old Sister In Lagos

How can you do this to your sister? A 26-year-old man has thrown decorum to the wind by sleeping with and impregnating his 16-year-old sister at Shibiri, in Ajagbandi area of Lagos.

The man who is a mini-bus driver, identified as one Rotimi Oriade, was said to have impregnated his only sister who lives in the same one room apartment with him.

The pregnancy, alleged to be about 4 months old was noticed by women in the residence, after they saw Mariam (real name withheld) vomiting severally and confronted her with questions.

A neighbour, Clifford Amechi revealed that, “One of the bold women in the compound identified as Mama Amarachi called the girl on Saturday and advised her to tell the truth now so that they would know how to help her condition.

"After much persuasion, the young lady opened up and said that it was her elder brother, Rotimi who put her in the family way. She said that her brother usually complains if he sees her with any boy."

The young girl said she was afraid of her brother because he usually threaten her, warning that he did not want to see her with any man.

Amechi said the teenage girl explained that, “One day she was sleeping on the mat when he returned and ordered that she should be sleeping in the bed. That morning she had taken her bath and never knew that her brother was still around and she was stark Unclad admiring herself in the mirror when he came in and closed the door behind him. He told her that so this was the beautiful body she was hiding inside clothes.

“He attempted to caress her breasts, but she said she quickly wrapped her body with the wrapper and left the room. But one day, he made love to her and since then he continued to do it until she became pregnant. I didn’t tell him that I’m pregnant.”

It was reported by Leadership that neighbours called Rotimi for a compound meeting but he swore and denied making love to his sister insisting that it was because of his high handedness over his sister that she pointed accusing finger at him.

He said any man that makes love to his sister is a madman and a devil who is not suppose to live.. He described her claim that he slept with her and impregnate her as a lie.
