A 19-year-old lady, Miss Ugo (not her real name), has found herself torn between seeking an end to years of alleged sexual abuse by her father and seeing him sent to prison.

Ugo alleged that her father, Uche Didie, a 43-year-old man from Delta State, first sexually abused her in 2019 when she was 12 years old.

Ugo, who lives with both parents at Opeloyeru, Maya, Ikorodu, Lagos, told The Guardian that although she decided to speak out to end the abuse, she did not want her father to be jailed because she feared it would destroy the family.

Didie was arrested by members of the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) before being handed over to the Police Tactical Unit in Araro, Ikorodu.

Speaking with The Guardian, Ugo, who recently completed her secondary education, alleged that her father had been sexually abusing her since 2019.
