Oh come on!
You reek of stupidity by this foolish post of yours.

First and foremost, it's not spelt "Dump" but "Dumb" like yourself.

You must be having some sort of brain disorder.

Dirty pig, the fact that you mentioned defiling children already means you've been thinking about it or have done it before. You're a complete disgrace to Anambra people, and you can't even spell.
