We concluded that Mr. Adewunmi has been sleeping with the survivor since 2019, she said. The prosecution witness, led by State Prosecution Counsel Abibat Ogunwemimo, told the court that the incident was reported to the Adeniji Adele Police Station, Lagos Island, by a teacher who came with a 15-year-old survivor and a referral letter from Alausa. She further stated that the survivors stepfather had been having carnal knowledge with the minor and in the process, the survivor had two pregnancies, which her mother aborted. She claimed the survivor also told them she was pregnant for her stepfather for the third time.

Following the arrest of the first defendant, Ajayi, his wife, Mrs Idowu Ajayi, the second defendant, went to the police where they wrote statements The survivor also said she did not notice that her stepfather used to put drugs in her tea until the day her sister saw left-over particles in the cup," the prosecution witness also said. The IPO said the survivor complained to her grandmother, who in turn, talked to her mother She said the mother denied it when she was told but took her daughter to hospital when she complained of stomach pain. "The girl said she wanted to further her education, that is why she reported to her teacher. "We gave her a referral paper and when the result came she was pregnant.
