Two married men named Mr. David Sarki, a driver and Chidi Njoku, a businessman, have been accused of raping a 13-year old girl, Peace Chinedu in an uncompleted building in Abuja. According to reports, the incident took place in the Gishiri area of Abuja.
Peace revealed to the press that her mother went out that evening to buy some items for dinner when suddenly, Mr. Chidi Njoku, a father of three came to their house with David Sarki and requested she followed them to see something. She resisted which prompted the men to lure her out under the guise they wanted to take her to her mother. She fell for the plot thinking her mother was in danger.
“I thought they were taking me to see my mum because that was what they told me, but instead I was taken to an uncompleted building. When I asked them why they brought me there, Mr. David slapped me and asked me to remove my clothes.
I refused, but both men tore my clothes. They pushed me down and Mr. David Sarki raped me. I cried and pleaded to Mr. Njoku who was watching, to rescue me but he also removed his trousers and raped me;” Peace narrates her ordeal.
The rape incident left her in severe pains. She pleaded with the men to spare her life which they did on the agreement that she would keep the experience secret. She was asked to wear her torn pants after which the two men took her home. She cried bitterly in pains and narrated the issue to her mother on her arrival. Her mother reported the crime to the Mabushi police station close to their area in Abuja.
A Mabushi police source told a DailyTrust reporter that when the victim was brought to the station, she could not walk and was immediately taken to the hospital.
“There was blood and sperm stain on her panties with high degree of bruises in her private part"
Both men have confessed to the crime after being arrested by the police and attributed it to the handiwork of the devil. When the Mabushi divisional police officer, Chief Superintendent Ayobami Surajudeen was contacted, he confirmed the incident and the arrest, but said the case would be transferred to State Criminal Investigation Department.
