In what will come across as a really
shocking development, a man has
gotten his very young daughter,
pregnant.
A really young girl of about 13
years, has been impregnated by her
own father.
The girl who happens to be
mentally challenged, was allegedly
impregnated by her 55-year-old
father in Kilifi, Kenya.
She has,however, given birth to a
baby girl at the Mariakani Health
Center in Kilifi County.
According to Citizen Digital, the
girl’s father who is suspected to be
responsible for the pregnancy is
currently being held at the
Mariakani Police Station where he
is awaiting a DNA test to confirm
whether or not he is the father of
the baby.
According the girl’s mother, she
noticed that her daughter’s womb
was swelling and took her to
hospital thinking she was sick, only
to be told that she was pregnant.
When questioned about the
pregnancy, the girl pointed at her
father as being responsible. The
girl’s father admitted that he had
slept with the girl, but denied that
he had impregnated her.
The mother told Citizen Digital that
she has separated from her
husband of 30 years and father of
ten following the incident. She
further added that traditional
rituals must be performed on her
daughter and the newborn to keep
them safe.
“He must buy a lamb and call a
traditional healer to perform
rituals around the homestead
otherwise we might end up losing
both children,” she said.
The baby and its mother are still at
the Medical facility where nurses
say they are faring well.
The DNA test is expected to be done
on Monday.
