For allegedly raping his three daughters, a
48-year-old man, Micheal Ogbar, on Tuesday appeared before an Ikeja Chief
Magistrates’ Court.
The Chief Magistrate, Mr Tajudeen Elias, refused to
hear his plea and remanded him in kirikiri prisons. Elias said the court had no
jurisdiction over the case and therefore transferred the matter to Apapa Magistrates’
Court.
The accused, who lives at Oke-Ogba St., Badagry, a
suburb of Lagos, is facing a two-count charge of defilement and rape.
The Prosecutor, Sgt. Rafael Donny, told the court
that the offences were committed between January and May at the accused
residence.
Donny said that the accused raped his two daughters
and defiled the third daughter.
“The accused sexually abused his 24, 20 and 10
year-old daughters,” he said. The offences contravened sections 137 and 259 of
the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.
