43 Year Old Man Molested And Impregnated His Junior Brother’s 15-Year-Old Daughter

PUNCH Metro reports that Kulajolu, who runs Christopher Hotels on Agor Road in the Isolo area of the state, was also being investigated for an attempted rape of his stepdaughter, Titi (not real name).

A 43-year-old hotelier, Femi Kulajolu, has been arrested by the police for allegedly molesting his younger brother’s 15-year-old daughter, Lola (not real name).

The father of six was said to have molested Lola on three occasions at the hotel and her mother’s house on Majekodunmi Street, Meiran, while the mother was not at home, threatening her that she would die if she reveal the secret.

The minor is actually eight-months pregnant now as a result of the alleged rape.

Titi’s experience was said to have prompted her mother, Ndidi, to report the two cases to the police, who arrested Kulajolu and arraigned him before an Apapa Magistrates’ Court.

Lola had offended her father sometime in June 2015 and fled to the uncle’s hotel for the fear of being beaten. He was said to have given her a room in the hotel where she passed the night. In the midnight, he reportedly sneaked into the room and forcefully had sex with her.

She said:
“I offended my father and fled home because he wanted to beat me. I went to my uncle’s hotel and slept there that night. While I was sleeping, he came in and molested me. He warned me not to tell anybody and threatened that if I did, he would kill me.”

“My ailing sister was hospitalised and my mother was staying with her at a hospital. He (Kulajolu) came to pass the night in our house. In the night, he came to my room, covered my mouth and molested me again. He threatened me that he would kill me if I told anybody. He slept with me three times. I am now eight months pregnant,” she said.
Lola told the police that a few months after the encounter, her sister fell ill and her mother went to look after her at a hospital she was admitted, adding that Kulajolu came to their house and molested her again.
Lola eventually opened up after much pressure on who was responsible for the pregnancy.

Kulajolu’s wife, Ndidi, said her husband was about molesting 14-year-old Titi when he was caught.

“Somebody came inside my room, switched off the light and slept on me. I woke up and discovered that the person had removed his clothes. I raised the alarm and everybody woke up and started searching the house to know the person. My sister noticed that somebody was hiding behind the curtain in the living room. We opened it and found my stepfather there. I broke into tears. When my mother asked him why he attempted to rape me, he started behaving as if he was drunk.”
However, the suspect denied molesting his niece, adding that he was not responsible for the pregnancy.[/quote_box_left]

[quote_box_right]He said:
“After the death of my brother, around November 2015, her (Lola’s) stepmother came to me and told me that she was pregnant. She said the family of the boy responsible for her pregnancy had come and they had discussed. I did not rape her and was not responsible for the pregnancy.”
Kulajolu was subsequently arraigned on Thursday before an Apapa Magistrates’ Court on two counts bordering on rape and sexual assault.[/quote_box_right]
