A 14-year-old girl identified as Faith, has revealed to the police in Lagos State how her maternal uncle, Chigozie Bright, brought her to the state with the promise of continuing her education but instead turned her into his sex slave, where he raped her about four times every week for three years, Punch reports.
The Delta State born victim said when her uncle offered to take her to Lagos in 2013 to continue schooling, she was over joyed as she saw her dream of going further in her studies being bright, not knowing what was in store for her in the hands of her guardian.
The young victim narrated how her randy 27-year-old uncle, rather made her his sex toy till she was rescued by the police, said he often threatened to kill her if she ever revealed what he was doing to her but one day, she summoned courage and confided in one of her schoolmates, who advised her to report the matter to the police at the Isokoko Division, Agege, which led to her uncle's arrest.
“My uncle brought me from Delta State in 2013 to live with him in Lagos and promised to give me quality education. He is my mother’s brother. My mother lives in Mali.
I was 11 years old when he started having sex with me. He initially took me to a woman. He had an issue with the woman and I started living with him. He had sex with me four times in a week.
He warned me not to tell anyone. But when I could no longer bear it, I told one of my friends in school and she advised me to report him to the police.”
The suspect who has confessed to the police, said he however had sex with his niece once a week, and not four times as she said.
“I was the one who brought her to Lagos. When she arrived in Lagos in September 2013, she stayed with me for a week and I took her to a woman because I was advised not to leave her alone at home."
"She had a misunderstanding with the woman and the woman said she did not want her again. Since then, she had been staying with me and we had sex every Saturday. But I ensured I did not ‘release’ into her private parts.
