The incident happened in Okom Ita, Akamkpa Local Government Area, Cross River State, when the two-year old girl (name withehld) strolled from her mother’s room into Bashiru’s apartment to play with the man she calls “uncle.”
Margaret, the toddler’s mother who narrated the incident to Vanguard said she did not stop her daughter from going into Bashiru’s room because she considered him a neighbour who could not harm her daughter.
She said:
“We have been living together for some time and now, so when my daughter went into his room I did not stop her even when she later came out and complained that she was having pains in her private part. I thought it was ordinary pain until in the evening when I wanted to bath her and she began to cry when soap touched her private part.”Margaret said when she reported the incident to the police, Basiru was arrested and taken to the Akamkpa police station .
Mr Hogan Bassey, the Cross River State Police Command spokesman confirmed the arrest of the man and said the matter was under investigation.

Chai! I still don't understand the rationale behind a man defiling a baby.
Never leave your child with anyone who isnt her father.Even if she's 1 month old.
ReplyDeleteThe mother shuld hav checked to verify the claim the first time her daughter complained of pain. What was she thinking? Smh

ReplyDeleteWonders will never end. Pls, some one tell me, what is ordinary vaginal pain, for a two tear old girl? Is it normal for female toddlers to complain of vaginal pain? Dont get what the unfit mum is saying by "ordinary pain"
ReplyDeleteEmeh, d issue of defilement of kids is rooted in superstitious beliefs of africans. Some people believe havin sex with a female child will simply cure them of aids and stds. Some others believe sex with little children will bring about wealth. And we wonder why africa is progressing at snail speed. Hope d dysfuctional mother, gets d poor child adequate medical treatment.
