An angry father, Deji Kamoru, is currently
in trouble for throwing his 14-year old
daughter, Aishat, from their three-storey
building home after he caught her with
her boyfriend in his bedroom.
Kamoru, who is a driver and security
guard, had gone to work but returned
early to prepare for his night duty only to
meet the door to his apartment locked
inside. Convinced that his daughter Aisha
was inside and must have locked the
entrance door to their apartment, he
started knocking at the door until she
eventually opened it.
Kamoru sensed that his daughter was
with someone, but before he could react,
Aishat’s boyfriend reportedly escaped.
Kamoru lost his temper and allegedly
tortured and threw his teenage daughter
from the third floor of their house at
Oroyinyin Street, Lagos Island. When
Aishat landed on the ground, she hit her
head against a metal object and became
unconscious.
The teenager was rushed to Lagos Island
General Hospital in Lagos where she is
under intensive care.Though Aishat is still
alive, she cannot talk or recognise any
body at the hospital.
The police at Adeniji Adele Division
arrested Kamoru but later released him
on bail so that he could take care of the
victim and foot her medical bill.
P.M.NEWS gathered that Kamoru
separated from Aishat’s mother some
years ago and took custody of their four
children, including Aishat, whom he has
been living with before the incident
happened.
kamoru's landlord, who did not want his
name mentioned, confirmed the incident,
saying he was shocked that a man would
express his anger by causing such pain to
his own daughter.
“Though I do not justify what his
daughter did, he should have controlled
his anger,” he said.
When P.M.NEWS visited the hospital, one
of the staff told our reporter that the
victim has been in coma for days and was
later transferred to LASUTH for further
examination and treatment.
The DPO of Adeniji Adele Division,
Monday Agbonika, who confirmed the
incident, declined further comment and
referred our reporter to the Police Public
Relations Officer, Ngozi Braide, saying the
most important thing for now is to save
girl’s life. Braide could not be reached at
the time of this report because her phone
was switched off.
