Man throws his 14-year-old daughter from 3rd floor after catching her with a boy

A father in Lagos is said to have caused severe injury to
his teenage daughter after throwing her from a three storey
building.

Deji Kamoru, threw 14-year-old Aishat from the third
floor after he found her in his bedroom with her boyfriend.
The young girl is said to be in critical condition and is
currently admitted at the Lagos Island General Hospital.
P.M. News reports:

P.M.NEWS learnt that when Aishat landed on the ground,
she hit her head against a metal object and became
unconscious.

Though Aishat is still alive, it was gathered that 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.

On the day the incident happened, Kamoru, who is a
driver and security guard, went to work and returned early
to prepare for his night duty but met the door to his
apartment locked inside.

Convinced that Aisha was inside and must have locked the
entrance door to their apartment, he started knocking at the
door until she eventually opened it.

Before Kamoru could react when he sensed that his
daughter was with someone, Aishat's boyfriend reportedly
escaped. He lost his temper and allegedly tortured and
threw her from the third floor of their house.

The landlord of the house, who did not want his name
mentioned, confirmed the incident. he said he was shock
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.
