14 Year Old Girl Says She Willingly Had Sex After Police Arrest Her Man For Rape

A 14-year-old girl, Jibola (pseudonym), has
said she willingly had sex in a hotel on
Omotolu Street, Amukoko, Lagos State, with
one Abib Muftau, who had been dating her
since 2014.
The girl made the confession after the
police arrested 19-year-old Muftau, for
unlawfully having a carnal knowledge of
her.
The suspect was also accused of conniving
with one other person at large, around 7pm
on May 2, to detain the girl at his residence
on Adejinyan Street, where he reportedly
had another round of sex with her.
Reports gathered that the minor
returned home late on the fateful day and
was quizzed by her mother. It was learnt
that she eventually divulged her
whereabouts to the mother, who reported
the incident at the Amukoko Police Station,
leading to Muftau’s arrest.
The police said Muftau made love with
Jibola sometime in October and December,
2014, without her parents’ consent. It was
also said he lured her into the relationship
with a marriage promise.
In her statement, Jibola said she and the
suspect had been dating each other for eight
months. She also stated that Muftau did not
have sex with her under duress.
She said, “I know Abib (Muftau). He
lives on Adejinyan Street, Amukoko.
He started dating me last year
September and since our relationship
started, he had made love with me
twice. The first time was in a hotel
on Omotolu Street, Amukoko. It was
one hour he booked for and he paid
N500. He only did it once.
“In October, 2014, he had sex with
me again in his room when his
mother, brothers and sisters were not
around. On May 2, I was in the
house when he came around
evening and asked me to follow him
to his house.”
Muftau was arraigned in an Apapa
Magistrate’s Court on three counts
bordering on unlawful sexual intercourse
and abduction.
