Widow Narrates What Ekiti Law Maker Did To Her After Alleged S3xually Harassment. A widow Mrs. Mercy Ilesanmi who raised alarm over an alleged s3xuall harassment by one Hon. Dare Pelemo of Ekiti State House of Assembly on the 6th of September, 2017, has finally revealed what the law maker did to her after S3xually harassing her.
While speaking on Tuesday to journalists in Ado Ekiti, Mrs. Ilesanmi revealed that the law maker went ahead to send hoodlums after her to beat her up.
She said;
“I came to visit the honourable member representing my constituency, Hon. Samuel Omotoso, but I met his absence.
“On my way out, I met Hon. Dare Pelemo and we exchanged pleasantries.
“Immediately, he fondled my breasts and I asked him what was the meaning of that? I am a married woman for that matter and I don’t like how he touched my breast.
“He now said that I am an enemy of government, that I do not suppose to come to the Assembly. I now asked him that, ‘is that the reason why you are touching my breasts, a married woman for that matter’? I challenged him that Pelemo, that one is too much for you.
“I went to report the matter to Hon. Akinyele and I met the Clerk in Hon. Akinyele’s office with two other visitors with him. He was on phone but I waited.
“Before I knew what was happening, Pelemo came in with some miscreants and they started beating me, destroying things in that office asking what am I doing in the House of Assembly complex that I am not supposed to be there, that I am an enemy of government.”
Ukrido, learnt the case was reported to the Legal Officer of the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA) Mrs. Kemi Atitebi and invitation was sent across to the law maker but till date , he is yet to report to FIDA.
According to Mrs. Kemi Atitebi, she said;
“FIDA Ekiti received the complaint of sexual harassment and assault against Hon. Dare Pelemo and the complainant is Mrs. Mercy Ilesanmi that she was assaulted and stripped Unclad right in the premises of the Assembly complex.
“FIDA wrote a letter to invite the respondent for us to hear his own side of the story and to mediate in the matter.
“The woman is a widow and mother of children and her dignity has been violated for the fact that she was stripped Unclad.
Mrs Atitebi added;
“FIDA strongly condemns any form of assault against women in the state.”
Well if you ask me of my opinion on this matter, I will tell you that the law maker might have been controlled by some strong Cough Syrups or dear readers what do you think?
