She added that the daughter was reunited with the father following the demise of her mother, and he has since then began molesting her.
“The mother took custody of the daughter after she separated from the girl’s father. The girl asked her mother to take her to her father following bullying from peers that she had no father. The mother complied and the father requested to remarry the mother. She agreed to remarry him, dropped the daughter and left,” Dr Aishatu said.
Before she returned, the father had molested the daughter. The girl complained to her mum. The father admitted when confronted by the mother. The mother took her daughter to the hospital, and both were found to be pregnant by the father.
“Unfortunately, the mother died from a stroke after giving birth. Following her death, the mother’s family rejected the daughter and took custody of the mother’s baby. Left with no choice, the daughter returned to her abusive father
“The father’s abuse continued, and he married another woman. When the daughter told her stepmother about the abuse, the stepmother confronted the father, who admitted to the abuse. The stepmother left him, but the father continued to abuse the daughter, resulting in another pregnancy. After the daughter gave birth to her second child, neighbours reported the situation to the Hisbah Board of Kano, leading to the father’s arrest and 7-year imprisonment.”
She added that Bauchi State government has now taken full responsibility of the daughter, and she is currently receiving support, including education, a bank account, and a salary.
