13 And 8-Years Old Girls Raped And Sodomized By Their Uncles (Photo)

A 13-year-old girl, yesterday, disclosed how her uncles— Saviour Philip, 35, and Paul Philip, 17—took turns to rape her in their one-room apartment on Olowolagba Street, off Odunsi, Bariga area of Lagos State. .

According to Vanguardngr, she also revealed that one of the suspects also assaulted her eight-year-old cousin, while their mother was away. The victims and their mother moved into the suspects’ apartment five months ago, due to their parents’ inability to get an accommodation. .

The accommodation problem also forced the children to drop out of school. Speaking with Vanguard, the JSS 2 student, “Paul started it. He usually did it in the afternoon when my mother and other tenants were away. .

He covered my mouth when I wanted to shout. When he was done, he threatened to kill me if I told my mother or anyone. When he is finished with me, he would call my little cousin inside and asked me to stay outside. .

At times, I would see him dipping his fingers into my cousin’s private part. Saviour also did it. But in his case, he penetrated my anus. The first day he did it, I shouted because of the pains, but he covered my mouth with clothes. .

When he was done, he brought out juju (charms) and said that he will invoke it to kill me if I tell anyone. I was forced to open up two weeks ago after my mother beat me because of Paul. She overheard me insulting Paul. .

Instead of asking me why. Out of annoyance, I summoned up courage and told my mother that the reason why I was rude to Paul was because he and his elder brother had been sleeping with me.”

Her mother, Ekaete, corroborated the victim’s claim, adding that the case was reported at the Bariga Police Division, consequent upon which the suspects were arrested. .

The suspects were charged to Magistrate Court 2, Ikeja, yesterday. Consequently, Paul was remanded at a forester home in Abeokuta, Ogun State, while Saviour was remanded at the Kirikiri Prisons, with the case adjourned to December 4.
