A 60-year-old herbalist, Tajudeen Awoniyi, is now in the Oyo State police net for defiling his two daughters and two other minor nieces. Awoniyi was arrested in the Akinyele area of Ibadan having been linked with the illegal act committed against his two teenage daughters, Barakat and Sefiat.
Commissioner of Police in the state, Mohammed Katsina, said Awoniyi was arrested after sleeping with his nieces, who passed a night in his apartment. It was alleged that Awoniyi gave traditional black soap to the teenage girls around 1am with which the girls bathed on the day the crime was committed. He thereafter slept with each of them separately.
He revealed that the mother, Jelilat Awoniyi, 35, who had travelled to Lagos on the day the crime was committed, called the police after discovering that her daughters were behaving abnormally.

One of the daughters, Barakat, 15, who confirmed that her father actually committed the offence, also said that her father had developed the habit of sleeping with her and her sister after getting drunk. She said they could not raise the alarm because he threatened to punish them severely, adding that their mother left the house when they were very young.
“We came home with Noimot, 14, and Kehinde, 15, on the evening of the incident but when it was too late, they decided to sleep in our house because their mother travelled.
My father later gave them black soap and he called them into his shrine one by one and slept with them. Each time he was drunk, he would rape me and my sister in the house. He had done it to me three times. I cried but I could not tell anyone for fear of my father,” she said.
Confirming the crime, Sefiat, 14, also said that her father had started sleeping with her last year also. Noimot, who said that she and her sister were virgins until the incest was committed, alleged that Awoniyi used juju before he could sleep with them.
