Comradepreneur, this is a good start. It is better than nothing. You are on the right track. The next step is awareness. Educate your sisters on the necessity of screaming at the top of their lungs any time the pervert tries to touch them. Teach all of them how to fight back when he comes close. Fight, bite, scream, cry, make such a hullabaloo that the pedophile will start avoiding them in order to avoid the drama. Even when he doesn't do anything, they should still scream and cry, and then use that excuse to pounce. Remember you are going for service soon and time is no longer on your side so you need to act NOW!

As for your dad, his actions leave a lot of suspicion. Nuff said

DWJOBScom:
I read this and i have been worried about the attitude of the elders

I have been praying for your sisters and it is painful.

Your cousin should go for counselling

MelesZanawi:
Your father molested his sister and gave birth to the boy.

One of your greatest regrets later in life will be taking your family matters to the public to be deliberated upon by all and sundry.

Read Previous thread: https://www.nairaland.com/7420371/how-reduce-hatred-cousin-brother

This is a follow up thread concerning the action I took after reading the comments.

I know I've failed as an older brother, to protect my siblings from their cousin. But I want to make amendments.

As such, the first action I took was to send my dad a text message, voicing out my displeasure on how he has been handling the issue regarding the harassment on my siblings.



And below, is his reply to the message, and my subsequent reply to him.

Apparently, the he took in the boy, so as to rehabilitate him. Meaning, the boy may have been previously doing this to his own sisters or may have attempted to do it to his sisters.

Did I also mention that he's a chronic lier? He lies even if caught while doing something he's accused of.

At this point, the only thing I could help my sisters with is to repair their door lock first thing in the morning.

I also woke up my cousin and sternly warning him of staying away from my sisters even in the daytime.

I also, intend to tell my Mallam, our Islamic cleric since my mom respects him a lot. And just maybe, he could talk some sense into her and my dad.

Thank you all for your advice. Your advices, has really helped me in order to become a better person than I was.

Kobojunkie:
Sexual assault a family matter? You sound like you are OP's father or uncle or one of dem dem, am I wrong?

saintneo:
1. In a way you are right, your dad is right as well but that cousin of yours needs strong discipline. Good step getting the locks repaired.

2. Next you should educate your sisters.

3. Next if you can ruffle (good reset slap) your cousin from time to time, it will be a good form of disciplinary measures. On another note, be careful about him fighting back, young people of nowadays have sense or conscience. It will not be good to hear your cousin used a knife on you.

The rest of my reply to him below

BE LIKE SAY AIRTIME DEY SHARK YOU O

Baffupdrizz:
You are not only wrong but stupidly judgemental. Learn to have conversations with people without jumping into unnecessary conclusions. This matter, though a matter of law, is a family matter until brought before a court of competent jurisdiction. What does the OP intend to achieve by posting a screenshot of his Father's SMS for the whole world to read? Is this forum his village council?

Ireportlive:
Your father would end up spoilingvthe boys life out of sympathy and ego... He is a criminal and must be treated as one, forget blood is thicker than water nonsense

Candidlady:
No vex

Your dad ma is a suspect
Bai kamata ka amince da mahaifinka ba

Ku daiku sani yan uwa baku dalafiya
