According to police prosecutor, the incessant rape was revealed when the victim started attending a students fellowship.
The prosecutor also said the victim’s school principal reported the incident to the police leading to her father’s arrest.
He, however, pleaded not guilty to the one-count charge of rape brought against him.
Justice Samuel Bola held that the evidence of the victim that the defendant demanded sexual intercourse from her before he acceded to her requests was true.
He said the defendant did not give any oral evidence to deny the evidence of his daughter or defend himself.
He ruled that the defendant was guilty as charged.
