A student of the Benue State University, Department of English Language and Literally Studies (names withheld). On Tuesday, 26th July, 2016 is a day she will never forget, perhaps for the rest of her life.
She was raped by an armed squad of three. On the sad day, she returned from school after an exhaustive time in school reading her lecture notes only to be awakened by armed bandits who were on a robbery spree in the house where she stays with other tenants and indeed, the neighborhood.
Narrating her story in tears, she said her crime is that she had no phone or money to give to the rapists, what they demanded from her when they resort to raping her as price for not having a phone.
The 17 year old was not alone in the house but because the rest gave away either phones or cash, she was asked to remove her bed sheet on which they used to take turns in raping her.
While two suspects are already in police net in connection with the crime, there is a more dangerous trend to the situation. Already, another BSU student has been shot on the arm for allegedly providing a link towards the arrest of the culprits.
He was attacked by a group of nine.
Additionally, rather than show remorse for the crime, the rapists are threatening that due to their links with the police, they are going to get off the hook and anybody directly or directly connected with their arrest will be history.
Anonymous source said “Society has to rise against this crime against womanhood".
"Students be careful!!!"
