Residents of the Byazhin area of Kubwa, a satellite town in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja were in the wee hours of Sunday thrown into shock as Matthew tried to have sex with his 20-year-old daughter, Patience (pseudonym).
It all started two weeks after my mother died. My dad came to my room to console me while I was thinking and crying over my mother’s demise which I have not been able to come to terms with. “It was completely different and questionable how my father started touching me, asking me to stop crying. In the midst of all that, my father started touching my breast. I jumped off the bed and he asked me why I was acting strange, that he was only consoling me.
“This act continued for some time and I could not tell anyone because no one may believe me since we should unexpectedly be mourning still. “This morning, I was trying to have my shower when my dad busted open the bathroom door naked.
He said he is in love with me and he can no longer hold himself. I grabbed my towel and ran out of the house screaming. He tried to stop me. “Neighbours came around and questioned me and I narrated everything to them,” Patience added, sobbing.
Mathew opened up to our reporter that he wishes to re-marry but whenever the thought comes to his mind, all he sees is his 20-year-old daughter. “What can I do? He quizzed rhetorically. I see her in my dreams making love to me and when I wake up to try, it never works. I’m losing my mind,” Matthew added.
Meanwhile, a source close to them said all had not been well since the woman died. “Sometimes, I hear her screaming, ‘daddy, leave me alone please, I am your daughter’. “This is tragic. I will never kill myself over a man because the moment I die, he would not even mourn me one bit,” she said, seemingly in a personal opinion.
A police officer in the area who identified himself as Bashir Adamu said this is not a police case. It is a family issue and should be resolved as such. However, checks by this newspaper revealed that Patience is 3 months pregnant for her lover, one Samuel Udo. Speaking on this development, Patience said, “I got pregnant intentionally so my father would stop bothering me, yet he did not.” She said she would commit suicide if her father does not leave her alone.
“When I told my father I was pregnant, he did not say a word, instead, he kept professing love to me. “All he said was he wished he was the father of the baby as he sees his wife (my mother’s) replica in me.”
An elder brother to Matthew, when contacted, said he was in shock over the incident. He said the family members would look into the issue and due action would be taken. “This is an abomination,”
