Co-tenants of Mr.Ismaila Ladoja who lives in
one of the rooms of a 10-room apartment in
Alagbado area of Lagos have always suspected
something unusual was going on between him
and his 22-year-old daughter.

Ife’s house
Punch reports that Ladoja, who is a bricklayer has
always been in the microscopic eyes of other
tenants because they all believe he sleeps with his
first daughter, Ife, who is 22 years of age. Although
no one wanted to bell the cat even when they saw
signs that the little girl was bleeding, some of them
however spoke with Punch anonymously.

The report which includes lots of accusations and
counter accusations, is said to have involved many
of the co-tenants confronting the bricklayer a
number of times but his denial made many believe
that it was truly a figment of their imaginations until
they noticed the young girl’s tummy protruding
which was followed by bleeding.

“We noticed over the last few months that Ife’s
tummy was growing bigger. We knew something
was wrong but one day, we noticed that she was
bleeding,” a neighbor who spoke on condition of
anonymity, said. One of the occupants of the house
alleged that Ladoja and the girl’s mother might have
colluded to abort Ife’s pregnancy. Making it known
why she thinks the mother of the young girl might
be involved in the matter, the neighbor said:

“He beats his wife regularly. The woman dare not
talk. In fact, when she was asked about it, she flatly
denied the allegations. “Everybody in the compound
knew what was going on. So, the girl was kept
indoors for about a week. We noticed that she
fainted a few times when she was kept at home. So,
they rushed her to the hospital.

“We asked the man where he took the girl to but he
said she had been taken to a hospital because she
was ill but would not disclose where. How can we
report to the police when we have not been able to
catch him on top of his daughter?”

“Sometimes, he would send his other children out of
the house, and when we ask the children why, they
tell us that their father is inside with their elder
sister and had asked them to go play outside,” one
of the tenants said.

Although the tenants have not been able to produce
evidences to buttress their claims aside from the
observations, It was made known that the man was
accused of doing same where he was living before
he moved to this present apartment he is living with
his wife and 7 children.
When one of his former neighbors on 4, Ajibola
Street was contacted, the former tenant who like
the rest, pleaded anonymity, alleged that Ladoja had
been suspected to be sleeping with his daughter
when he was living there for a long time before he
moved to the present apartment.


“Do you expect the wife to tell you the truth? She is
just a poor woman who is helpless and does not
want to put her husband in trouble. He was always
locked up with the girl while the other children
stayed outside when we were living together. He
always denied sleeping with the girl.“But the girl was
always moody. She cried sometimes. When we
asked what was wrong with her, she would never
say it,”
he said.
When Ladoja’s landlord, an elderly woman who
identified herself as Mrs. Shorinolu, was contacted,
she made it known that although she doesn’t stay in
the house, but if he is found wanting, he should be
arrested instantly to face the law. However, Mrs.
Shorinolu’s daughter, a headmistress of a school,
who also oversees the welfare of the house made it
known that various reports reached her over the
man’s actions which made her gave him a quit
notice but all to no avail.

When Ife’s mother, who is also Ladoja’s wife was
contacted, she denied the accusations saying she
trusted her husband and that he cannot do anything
like that. The 40-year-old woman said:

“We suffer so much and my husband labours day
and night to put food on the table. We have seven
children and have been using a one-room
apartment since we got married 22 years ago. So,
what do we have that anybody would envy to the
extent of cooking up such allegation?
“It is a total lie that she fainted or was bleeding. She
only had malaria which became really serious and
we had to take her to someone who treated her.”
When the wife was asked to give the phone number
of the doctor at Holyfield Hospital, who treated her
daughter. She said her daughter was not treated at
Holyfield.
“I took her to a drug store owner, who gave her
drips and few drugs. Ife currently lives with my
mother. “How can someone sleep with his own
child? Is it wrong to love one’s child
unconditionally?”
The woman who began to cry, lamenting that she
had no idea why her family was being victimized
even though they were poor could not however give
the contact of her daughter saying she needs to
inform the girl first. She also claimed she does not
know the phone number of her daughter. She also
declined giving the address of where the girl was
staying.
When Ladoja himself was later contacted, Ladoja
explained that he had no idea why anybody would
think he would do such a thing to his child.

“Why would I as a Yoruba man do such a thing to
my adult child? May God punish those people who
have been saying those bad things about me. They
simply hate me,” he said.
Asked why he took his daughter to hospital and why
she was bleeding, the bricklayer said, “She simply
had malaria. Truly, we had kept her indoors for
some days. It is just another lie by my neighbours
that she was bleeding.

“After some days and her
situation deteriorated, we rushed her to the
hospital. We had given her drug for her malaria but
it did not seem to work.”

Ladoja who said he could not remember the name
of the hospital where her daughter is receiving
treatment said:
“God will bless you for calling me. I am really happy
you want to publish this because the world needs to
understand the lie this people have been spreading
about me. Did anyone of them catch me red-handed
sleeping with my daughter?”
