Godwin Okpara, Former Super Eagle, Sentenced To 13 Years In Jail!
« on: June 04, 2007, 01:05 PM »

A French court last Friday sentenced a Nigerian former footballer who played for a top French club, Godwin Okpara, to 13 years in prison for the rape of his adopted daughter. Okpara's wife received 15 years for her rape and torture, while his mother-in-law received a five-year sentence for failing to come to the aid of a person in danger. After the verdict, Okpara's wife, Linda, sarcastically turned on their daughter, Tina, saying: "Thanks. Thanks a lot, Tina. Good luck in France." She then danced in the accused's box and made incomprehensible remarks toward her daughter, who stared at the ground.

Jurors had deliberated for two hours before reaching the verdict. Okpara, a 34-year-old who played for French club Paris Saint-Germain between 1999 and 2001, denied raping the girl, saying the sex had been consensual. During the four-day trial, Tina, also a Nigerian, now aged 19, described having lived through an ordeal because of her parents, who brought her to France in 2001 at the age of 13. She said she was forced to do all household chores, and was regularly raped by her adopted father under threat of being beaten. Linda Okpara allegedly shaved her head, stubbed a cigarette out on her cheek, and forced her to perform cruel sexual acts, according to the accusations. Defense lawyers said they were likely to appeal. Okpara's lawyer had described him as mentally absent. "Godwin Okpara is not the heartless monster that has been described," said Joseph Cohen Sabban

Not only do you lack context,you missed the point that Godwin's wife aided and abetted the rape.  Grin

Bro i totally get your fixation on the word "some', but just because  i didnt use the word doesnt mean that i meant "all" .

If i had said "hopefully ALL nigerian men and women can learn from this"  then you can bring out your 'generalization gun' to kill me and blast me into orbit.

Not in the mood for a crash course in english. i have dinner to fix.

Godwin Okpara is insane. He must be flogged till he forgets his name. He should be eradicated from the earth and sent sent to planet mars. He said he had sex with consensual agreement. how can he tell us fuckin lies. A girl of 13 will have consensual agreement of having sex with a man able to be her father or even grand father in some tribes.

Godwin i wish i can put flames on your ass and burn your pv pa*t with red hot flames from iron steel industries. You are a disgrace to humanity. Dont appeal to any judgement. just go to jail and serve your jail term
