The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a native doctor, Ifatade Elegbeleye, for allegedly duping and impregnating a female client, Cecilia (full names withheld ), in the Ipaja area of the state.
42 years old Elegbeleye, who hails from Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, was arrested by the X-Squad section of the Police command after the victim made a complain to the police.
But the doctor, who confessed that he slept with the lady, added that the two of them fell in love with each other and insisted that they both enjoyed the sex.
Elegbeleye added that the victim had given birth to a baby girl for him.
The doctor was said to have been arrested on December 21,
2015. According to the police, the native doctor allegedly had a culture
of turning his female clients into house maids after having sex with
some of them.
The police added that Cecilia’s mother, who is a trader in Abesan
Estate, Ipaja, had also been allegedly defrauded by the native doctor to
the tune of N7.9m in 2015.
Punch reported that Cecilia was taken to Elegbeleye in November 2014, to seek help on issues bordering on late marriage and spiritual husband.
It was learnt that Elegbeleye, who had his centre at Olude bus stop in the Ipaja area, however, allegedly took advantage of the situation to impregnate Cecilia, as well as dupe the family.
The police alleged that the native doctor had built two houses ─ one in Lagos and the other in Ekiti ─ from the proceeds of the fraud.
Speaking with Punch, Cecilia said she met the native doctor at a bus stop on an evening in November 2014, adding that he allegedly hypnotised her into having an affair with him.
“I met him as a cab driver at the Iyana Ipaja Roundabout. We never knew that the man was a fraudster and was into occultism. He first became friendly with my mother. After that, one thing led to another until he sexually assaulted me and defrauded my mother,” she claimed.
However, Elegbeleye told Punch that there was no truth in Cecilia’s claims, adding that after she gave birth to a child for him, he rented a two-bedroom apartment for her.
In his words, “It is true that I am a native doctor and I treated her for ulcer and spiritual problems. She had a spiritual husband. She was having ‘promise and fail offer’ from men. So, we started befriending each other and in the process, she got pregnant for me.
“The woman now brought policemen to my house to arrest me. She has a girl for me. I did not use force to sleep with her. Can you hypnotise a woman who does not love you? It is not possible. She loved me. Her family wants to take all my property. That is why they are lying against me. Where did they get the N7m they are claiming? Are they rich?”
The Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmus, confirmed the arrest. Investigation is ongoing.
