Edo Man Arrested for Allegedly Raping 13-Year-Old Stepdaughter and Her Friend
The Edo State Security Corps (ESSC) has arrested 41-year-old Michael Ogungbemi. He is accused of repeatedly raping his 13-year-old stepdaughter and her friend, both Junior Secondary School students in Ogbegun community, Ikpoba-Okha LGA. Authorities say the suspect assaulted his stepdaughter while her mother was at work. He reportedly sent her younger siblings away to create opportunities for the attacks. He also allegedly lured the girl’s friend to their home and defiled her after multiple attempts. The friend fell ill at school, prompting her teacher to notify her parents. Medical tests confirmed an infection. Under pressure, the minor disclosed the abuse. ESSC Deputy Commander Richard Balogun confirmed the arrest and handed the suspect over to police for prosecution.
