Gunmen rape girl in front of fiance, give her N500 as birthday gift

Residents of Nsukka, Enugu State were recently stunned when a young girl was raped by some hefty men in front of her fiance and was given N500 as birthday gift.

The girl whose identity remains concealed was with her boyfriend, one Sunday Ozioko, marking her birthday when the men invaded the venue.

It was gathered that the gunmen, who reportedly rode in a motorcycle, blocked Sunday along Orba Road at 6.30pm, and took over his Camry and zoomed off through Orba Market to Obollo-Afor.

They stopped at Alor-Ano Community Secondary School, raped the girl and shot her fiance in the head.

A resident of the community disclosed that when the two sex-crazed men were satisfied, around 9:30pm, they gave the victim N500 and abandoned her at Odolu in Kogi State.

When the men realised that the girl could identify them later, they took after her again, but she escaped through a path that led her to a crusade ground, where Adonai Faith Assembly was having a vigil.

The girl was said to have narrated her horrible encounter to the congregation, disclosing that her fiance was still in a critical condition.

According to a source, the pastor of the church alerted the police at Nsukka Urban, who quickly rushed him to Bishop Shanahan Hospital, Nsukka.

DailyPost learnt that Ozioko has, however, been transferred to UNTH, Enugu, for a surgical operation on his head.

Enugu State Police spokesman, Ebere Amarizu, who confirm the sad and shocking incident said the command was currently investigating the matter to bring those behind the devilish attack to book.
