The evil that lurks in broad day light.
A 14-year old has recounted how a septuagenarian ex-soldier, Mr. Shuaibu Ahmed, 70, who raped and impregnated her, gave her N100 the first time he raped her. According to the child, she continued to let him rape her due to his threats of killing her should she refuse.
Vanguard reports that Ahmed and the victim are neighbours at Ago Tapa area of Ibadan, Oyo State. Ahmed, according to reports, also took advantage of many other under-aged girls in the neighbourhood.
The girl’s pregnancy was revealed to her unsuspecting father by a neighbour.
Speaking with Vanguard, the girl said:
“Sometime last year, my sister sent me to Papa Soldier’s house to collect some compact discs for her.
He removed my clothes, underwear and forced himself on me. I tried to shout, but he blocked my mouth and threatened to kill me. After he was through, I saw some whitish substance on me.
It was then he told me he had deflowered me and that I should not tell anybody about it. Since then he has been having sex with me and each time he would warn me and even threaten to kill me.
At times, he will give me N100 or N200. The day he deflowered me, he gave me N100. I was not enticed by money; it was his constant threats that frightened me. I could not tell anyone because I didn’t want to die.
I just finished JSS 1. I had not started menstruation when he first forced me. It was after that encounter I started seeing my period.”
The girl’s father has since reported the case at Mokola Police Station and the suspect according to reports will be transferred to the State CID for proper investigation.
