According to the family's account, a 58-year-old man named Muhammed Salifu, the chief of the Igala Community in Lagos, is accused of sexually assaulting a teenage girl. The victim, whose name is not disclosed in the source, was allegedly lured to Salifu's hotel room in Ojota by the community leader in December 2023. Once inside, Salifu is said to have forcibly raped the teenager, threatening her with grave consequences if she informed anyone about the incident.
The trauma did not end there, as the family claims Salifu allegedly targeted the teenager again on December 27, 2023, after she had voluntarily helped with household chores at his residence. The alleged assault occurred around 2:00 am, and the victim confided in her mother about the incident the following day. A hospital examination confirmed the teenager was pregnant, prompting the family to seek legal recourse against Salifu.
