The Ondo state High Court in Akure has issued life sentence to one Kolawole Apoti after he was found guilty of raping four teenagers.
One of the victims of the sexual assault of the convict was his niece, a secondary school pupil, who was said to have invited other teenage girls to his house where he forcefully had sex with them and then gave each of them N100.

The convict was said to have been having sex with his niece for a long time before the niece started introducing her friends to the uncle.
According to reports, Kolawole’s sexual act was exposed when the victims argued over the money the convict gave to one of them and the principal of their school got to know about the development. It was immediately reported at a police station and the convict thereafter was charged to court.
