Stepdaughter contracts hoodlums to assault mother’s husband for ‘putting mouth in her matter’

Some hoodlums recently beat up Kayode Adesile, an automobile technician, when he when he visited his new wife, Oluwaseun Olusola, on June 26, 2024 at her residence in the Powerline area of Meiran, Lagos State.

Adesile was given the beating of his life allegedly on the order of his stepdaughter, Esther, for reprimanding her on an occasion she disrespected her mother an automobile technician, he had incurred the wrath of Esther, his wife’s from a previous marriage, for.

The 15-year-old stepdaughter allegedly invited the hoodlums to teach Adesile the lesson of his life for “meddling in her matter”.

The hoodlum were said to have accosted Adesile while she was about to step into Esthe expectant mother’s house, pounced on him, beat him black and blue and recorded the incident with their mobile phones.

Adesile said, “I verbally reprimanded her recently for being rude and disrespectful to her mother, who is my wife. I didn’t know that she was upset by my action.

“They had carefully plotted the assault, knowing that I usually visit my wife’s home three times in a week.

“When I came around on Wednesday, June 26, 2024, I was accosted by Esther who beckoned on the hoodlums to beat me up.

“I was badly beaten and humiliated as they took their time to make videos of the assault.”

After Adesile was assaulted, his attackers ran to the Meiran Police Station to lie that he attacked them. By the time Adesile reported the matter at the same police station he was detained.

The police, according to sources, later found out that he was actually the victim of the assault, contrary to the complaint made by his attackers.

“The hoodlums invited by Esther were led by one Oluwakemi aka. Honour, who supervised the brutality meted out to me and even filmed the scene with his boys.

“I was battered by the hoodlums and left helpless as there was no one to save me from them.

“Even my wife who tried to save me was slapped by the boys and pushed to the ground.

“The hoodlums then left for the station and lied that I had attacked them.

“The police detained me when I went there to complain about the assault.

“It was later discovered that the hoodlums had lied and that they were the aggressors in this case.

“Hence, I was released on bail on Thursday June 27.”

Commenting on his relationship with Esther, “My wife is pregnant for me. I was the one that raised money to send Easter to school after she finished her JSS 3.

“I did not do anything to deserve the brutality meted out to me by the hoodlums she invited in connivance with a disgruntled family member of her mother to dehumanise me and even ran to the police to further detain me when in actual fact they were the aggressors.

“I was released on bail this morning (June 27) and the leader of the hoodlums is the leader of a cult in the community.”

Adesile’s wife, Oluwaseun, who is also Esther’s mother, said her daughter was being brainwashed and used by her unscrupulous family members and neighbours.

Oluwaseun said: “Esther Adekunle is a product of my former marriage. Her father humiliated me and was fond of brutalising me till we parted ways.”

She said she had struggled and weathered the storm to ensure that Esther and her two siblings got a good life and education after she parted with their father.

The 36-year-old woman said that Esther had formed the habit of disrespecting and insulting her in public.

“She would leave home without my consent and return when she wishes. She exhibits dirty habits at home.

“It was recently when she insulted me openly that my new husband called her out and verbally reprimanded her for her misguided attitude.

“It was for that reason that she planned with my mother’s family members and neighbours to invite the hoodlums to brutalise my husband.

“I have been dating my new husband before my mother passed on two years ago.

“He was the one that provided the money we spent in processing admission for Esther to proceed for her Senior Secondary education.

“Yet, he is the same person my daughter brought hoodlums to humiliate in public on June 25.

“While the boys were beating my husband, they also slapped me when I tried to stop them.

“The leader of the hoodlums, who is the husband of my daughter’s boss, was also detained when my husband identified him as the leader of the gang that attacked him.

In an audio recording obtained by our reporter, Esther, confronted by some persons on her complicity in the assault on her mother’s husband, accused Adesile of fondling her breasts about two months earlier.

“He (stepfather) fondled my breasts about two months ago,” Esther said.

Asked why it took her two months to avenge her purported molestation and why she did not tell her mother about it, she said, “I told my mother’s family members about it.”

Adesile and Esther’s mother however described the allegation as a tissue of lies.

“She is lying. I have never molested her. She is acting a script handed to her by the people that are guiding her to disrespect her mother and myself over my wife’s inheritance which they want to collect from her,” Adesile said.

Esther’s mother also said her daughter was misguided and told to lie against her stepfather after it dawned on them that their action was criminal and could have consequences.

She said, “The truth is that she is doing a hatchet job for some people who are planning to take over my late mother’s property at all cost.

“My husband has never molested Esther. She is being used.”

The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) of the Lagos State Police Command, Mr. Benjamin Hundeyin, did not answer his call and also had not responded to text messages sent to his WhatsApp.
