Police arrest, investigate 2 brothers for alleged rape of minor in Enugu

Police have arrested and are investigating case of two brothers, Chima Nnamani and Michael Nnamani, for allegedly involvement in serial raping of a nine-year-old minor within Enugu community.

The two brothers, who are from the same biological parents, hail and live within the Akpawfu community in Nkanu East Local Government Area of Enugu State.

The Enugu State Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Daniel Ndukwe, confirmed the incident to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Enugu on Saturday.

“Case-file and suspects involved in the case of alleged defilement of a nine-year-old have all been transferred to State Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Enugu, for conclusive investigation,” he said.

The Founder of Women Aid Collective (WACOL), Prof. Joy Ezeilo, had called for the immediate prosecution of the two suspects arrested for allegedly defiling the minor within a community in Enugu State.

Ezeilo, who is also the Executive Director of WACOL, made the call in a statement made available to NAN in Enugu.

The statement read in part: “On Nov. 28, 2021, WACOL received a case of defilement of a nine-year-old girl by two brothers from the same biological parents, Chima Nnamani and Michael Nnamani, from Akpawfu community.

“The accused persons had been allegedly arrested for serially violating a nine-year-old relative living with them.

“While narrating her ordeal in the hands of these perpetrators, the victim mentioned how this heinous act perpetrated against her body started immediately when she arrived to live with them in their place of abode and had continued on a daily basis especially in the morning hours.

“She stated that she often bled profusely afterwards, yet no one offered her any help or treatment.

“The victim added that she had complained to her Aunty, Mrs Theresa Nnamani, severally who happened to be her father’s step sister about the wicked act but she remained adamant because these perpetrators were her biological sons.

“She added that her Aunty had returned home unexpectedly in one of the fateful days and witnessed the incident where her sons were sexually abusing her yet she did nothing to end the sexual abuses.

“The child was brought to WACOL by Good Samaritans who disclosed that the child complained of severe pains, and when they probed further she confided in them about her ordeal in her aunty’s house.

“Following the report, WACOL has petitioned the Nigerian Police (MTD), Garki, Awkunanaw in Enugu, which led to the arrest of Michael Nnamani and his brother, Chima Nnamani, who is a student of University of Uyo.

“WACOL, therefore, urges the Nigerian Police to expedite action on the matter by charging the case to court as required under the Criminal Law of Enugu State and the Violence Against Persons Prohibition Law (VAPPL 2015) of Enugu State.”

Chai Mpukiri, they deserve life sentence!

I don't want to see anyone defending them, why? Why? I'm tired of Nigeria

And this happens in my dear state.

Men and rape hmmm. May God help us o.

backbencher:
Belongs in the crime section, not politics

We all got to be watchful

JONNYSPUTE:
....And a woman aided it.

Sterope:
It is not clear what 'watches' mean in this context. The post didn't mention that she took any action after the rape.

saphiere:
And you did not condemn the rapists? SHM

Simran94:

So, you left the most important aspect which is that" Two male adults raped a 9 year old girl and have been having sex with her continously".

The kind of men Nairaland is breeding is really disgusting

saphiere:
"Watches" does not mean she sees of as normal. She was watching while thinking of what to do in order for those ediots to stop it.

God punish every man who as raped.

JONNYSPUTE:
....Why should I when their mother,a woman like her sees it as normal ?

JONNYSPUTE:
....Lol. watches in this context means she sees the abominable acts all the time but has refused to stop it thereby aiding the crime.

Try and read meaning into some certain things to know what it implies.

How people even get erection in front of minors and during a forceful penetration is what I will never understand.

Watching and thinking of what to do without doing nothing is her aiding via negligence because the culprits are her sons.

God will punish her too.

Jakumo:


You would have to be a rapist yourself to "understand" that horrible crime.

saphiere:
Men are just terrible.

You need to get a refund from your English Studies teachers if they taught you that "watches" means "aided".
