What exactly can be done to curb this increase in the rate of paedophile acts?

An Ogun State High Court sitting at
Isabo, Abeokuta, yesterday sentenced a retired
soldier, Alabi Ibrahim, to life imprisonment for
raping his 10-year-old step-daughter and infecting
her with Human Immunodeficiency Virus, HIV.
In his judgement, Justice Abiodun Akinyemi said the
accused faced a one-count charge of having sexual
intercourse with the child. The offence, he said, was
contrary to Section 3 of Child Rights Law.
The judge said the court was convinced that the
allegation against the accused had been proved
beyond reasonable doubt.
Akinyemi said further that the victim’s testimony,
during cross examination, showed that she was
telling the truth and not tutored and that there was
concrete evidence that the victim was sexually
assaulted, having also lost count on number of times
the convict assaulted her.
The judge stated: “The court is convinced about the
girl’s evidences; she is intelligent, she remained
consistent during cross examination. She does not
seem to have been tutored.
“I find her evidence credible. Evidence of her mother
corroborated her own.”
Akinyemi also made reference to a medical report,
which stated that the accused infected the girl with
HIV, stressing that the convict’s action had brought a
permanent stigma on the innocent girl.
The judge explained that evidence of the medical
report did not suggest that the girl had earlier been
sexually assaulted as alleged by the convict.
It would be recalled that the convict committed the
crime in 2012 in his home, where himself, the victim
and her mother lived.
It led to his subsequent arrest and trial, following the
intervention of Ogun State chapter of Child Protection
Network, CPN, an umbrella body of non-
governmental organisations, NGOs.
