I was gutted when I saw the headline of this story yesterday on Metro TV, so the first thing I did this morning when I woke up from bed was to read the story.
I’m not surprised that a father has bonked her daughter and given birth with her since we constantly read it in the news but having 5 children with her is grievous and satanic.
As reported by Daily Graphic, the man pleaded guilty to the charge of incest and as usual he came back to plea not guilty when he appeared in court.
Im not being judgemental but then I’m wondering why such a man is still alive. So how will the children call him? Father or grandpa? And call their mum, their step mum? Oh why?
Read the story below:
A 47-year-old farmer who fathered five children with his biological daughter is in the grip of the law.
Yao Hatekah impregnated his daughter, known as Baby, when she was 11 years old and subsequently had children aged 14, 12, 3, 2 and a month-and-a-half-old  with her.
Hatekah, who pleaded guilty to the charge of incest on June 20, 2012, changed his plea to not guilty when he reappeared before the Sogakope Circuit Court Wednesday.
According to him, he had one child with his daughter and was not responsible for her other children.
The court, subsequently, remanded him to reappear on July 12, 2012.
Prosecuting, Inspector Emmanuel Atsor of the Sogakope Police told the court that Hatekah began having an affair with his daughter after his wife died.
His alleged incestuous act was brought to the attention of the police by the Chief of Gonu Ashiagborkorpe, near Dabala in the South Tongu District in the Volta Region, TorgbeSekpetey II.
It said the residents of the community had known of Hatekah’s incestuous act all these years but were afraid of him because of his threat to kill anybody who dared to criticise him.
