An Osun State High Court, Ilesa Division, yesterday sentenced a
septuagenarian, who is also a traditional ruler in Ijesha land, to seven
years in prison for raping two secondary schoolgirls.
The monarch, Loja Araromi Otokobo, Oba Moses Adeniyi, sexually
assaulted the 13 and 14 years’ old girls when he offered them a ride
from their school, St. Margaret Girls School, Ilesha, on the pretence
that he would take them to their houses.
One of the girls was said to have lived in the same area with the
traditional ruler in the past, which made them trust him. But the
monarch drove them to his hotel, Prince Way Hotel, where he assaulted
them sexually.
After sleeping with them, Adeniyi cleaned their private parts with a
white handkerchief and warned them not to tell anybody. He also warned
that if they told anyone, they would die mysteriously. Scared of the
threat, the girls were unable to tell anyone for a few weeks.http://newtelegraphonline.com/monarch-jailed-raping-teenage-schoolgirls/
