Members of the O’odua People’s Congress,
OPC, and concerned Lagosians have rescued a
teenager (name witheld), who was raped,
robbed and abandoned by an unidentified man
in Agege area of Lagos State.
P.M.NEWS learnt that the OPC members saw
the secondary schoolgirl on Sunday, 9 March
in a traumatized state at a public toilet near
NITEL Office, at Oko Oba, AgegeAnd after
giving her first aid treatment, the teenager
was handed over to the police at the Agege
Elere Police Divisional Headquarters, who
referred her to Orile Agege General Hospital,
Agege for a comprehensive medical treatment.
The teenager, who will be 15 years by August,
narrated that she came from Osun State and
was on her way
to Badagry to stay with her aunty who had
just given birth, but decided to stay the night
at Agege, when it became late (around 9.p.m.)
and she couldn’t get a bus to her destination.
The traumatised girl told the OPC members
that when it became dark she decided to sleep
in front of a shopping complex, near Elere
Police Divisional Headquarters, till the next
day.
The victim said that shortly after she spread
some cartons and was about to sleep, a man
pushed her from behind and she fell on the
floor.
She narrated that the man used her belt to tie
her neck and used a cloth to cover her face
and started raping her.
The victim said she screamed and shouted for
help but there was no one to rescue her and
the man raped her four times.
She alleged that thereafter, a night guard,
whom she described as huge and tall, and
wore eyeglasses, came with a torch light and
left with the rapist to an unknown destination.
She alleged that the night guard left her with
blood all over her body without making any
attempt to help her.
She alleged that the guard only came the next
day to chase her across the road to the public
toilet where she was later found by the OPC
members and sympathizers.
“It was at this spot that the OPC members
and other sympathisers saw me. They started
pouring water on my head because I had no
strength. The man after raping me stole my
handset and left with the guard. Before they
left, they asked me how much I needed but I
said I didn’t need their money,” the teenager
said.
The girl appealed to the Federal Government
and the Lagos State government to come to
her aid and ensure the culprits do not go
unpunished.
The DPO, CSP Eze Philip, of Elere Police
Divisional Headquarters, has begun
investigation on the matter, after instructing
that the victim should be taken to the nearby
hospital for quick medical attention to save
her life. The girl is still receiving treatment,
while her father has been contacted in Osun
State.
