On that very day Mr. Idris and his wife left their home with address No 11, Adedoyin Street, Palm Grove area of the metropolis and went to their respective working places, as they always do every day, leaving behind their three kids (two boys and a girl) at home.
The neighboirhood is a place of various people. By the nature of their work, both parents dont return home till 8:00p.m while the three kids were always left at the hand of God ND of neighbours and other residents .
On wednesday, just before the dark portion of the day comes in, the two male children of the family were reportedly playing with their peers in the neighbouring houses while the female one Mariam, remained in their family apartment.
one of the miscreant realised that mariam was all alone in their family room, who was identified as Michael, popularly also known as Iku (meaning death), reportedly went into the apartment where he allegedly forceful rape the young Mariam.
Mr. Idris began his story : “I came home that day earlier than my wife and asked the three kids whether they have eaten their dinner. The two boys told me that they have not eaten, but quite unlikely Mariam, she did not welome me when they all learnt that I was back from work.
Usually, she is the one that do run to me first to welcome me home.” The girl’s father narrated how he frightened by his daughter’s indifference behaviour to his arrival at home from work and walked up to her.
He continued, “when I went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the children, I became worried about Mariam’s silence so i decided ask her what was wrong with her. She then pointed her private part and said ‘this place is severely paining me.”
The father also narrated how the examine the miriam private part, with the mother, who had returned from the market by then, they discovered semen and blood all over miriams. He raised the alarm over their discovery and he pleaded with Mariam to go show them the man that so violated her.
“Mariam took us to where about 10 miscreants were seated arround our house and pointed at the man. When he was asked, he told us that it was true he came to our room but he only played ball with Mariam when he realised that there was no one at home to play with her.” Law enforcement agents at Pedro Police Station were promptly alerted of the development who later came into the case to arrest the suspect.
News sources rumoured that Michael had been a rapist who had been involved in the various act before now. He was said to have raped a mentally-retarded woman in the neighbourhood some times ago
Mr. Idris told reporters that Mariam was quickly taken to the hospital where some treatments and tests were conducted on her, while doctors also told us that an HIV test would also be conducted on her.
He concluded his discussion by saying , “It is unfortunate that this thing is happening to my family because we had always raised the alarm over how these miscreants gather here without any known work they are doing every day.
Mariam’s mother could not even talk to press because she was too distraught to say a word. But a policeman at the Pedro Police Station who preferred to remain anonymity, confirm that the arre the suspect and that investigations into the crime are ongoing.
