Kobojunkie:
Have you reported the case to the police yet? If she is barely 16 then it could be considered rape of a minor.

MuchAdo:


Are you sure he raped her

Age of consent is 13, you know...

MuchAdo:


That's your own thinking. The shame is too much here. People commit suicide because of shame.

Kobojunkie:
Or because of Depression?

alizma:

In which country?
As far as Nigeria is concerned, it's 18 not 13

MuchAdo:


Don't be in an ignoramus. Learn!

It's 13!!

Google is your friend but if that is not enough for you, you may try sexual relationship and get yourself behind bars for some years

Yinusa Yellow is currently in jail for abduction and rape. Ese Oruru never gave consent. The court determined in count 5 of the charges that she was old enough to give consent.

Justice Jane Inyang, sentenced Yunusa to five years in prison for count 2, seven years in prison for count 3,4 and 5 respectively, noting that the prison terms are to be served consecutively.

[quote]Now let's examine the charges:

The charges against Yunusa read: “That you, Yunusa Dahiru, a male, resident in Opolo-Eipie area of Yenagoa in Bayelsa State, conspired with the duo of Dankano Mohammed and Mallam Alhassan, between August 2015 and February 2016, to commit an offence of abduction and thereby committed offence punishable under section 27(a) of the Trafficking in Persons (prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act, 2015.”


Count two: “That you, Yunusa Dahiru, abducted Ese Oruru by means of coercion, transported and harboured her in Kano State and thereby committed an offence punishable under section 13(2)(b) of the Trafficking in Persons (prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act, 2015.”

Count three: “That you, Yunusa Dahiru induced Ese Oruru by the use of deception and coercion to go [/b]with you from Yenagoa to Kano State with the intent that she be forced or seduced into illicit intercourse and thereby committed an offence punishable under section 15(a) of the Trafficking in Persons (prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act, 2015.”

Count four: “That you, Yunusa Dahiru, procured Ese Oruru and subjected her to sexual exploitation in Kano State and thereby committed an offence punishable under section 16(1) of the Trafficking in Persons (prohibition) Enforcement and Administration Act, 2015.”

Count five: “That you, Yinusa Dahiru, had unlawful carnal knowledge of Ese Oruru without her consent and thereby committed an offence contrary to section 357 of the criminal code Act and punishable under section 358 of the Criminal code ACT, Cap. C.38 laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004.”

it's unfortunate your sister got pregnant under these circumstances. Nevertheless, murder is a sin. That precious life didn't ask to be conceived. Please do not terminate that pregnancy. I am not imposing my opinion on you, just begging you for the love of God.

Dear Nairalanders,

With a sad and heavy heart, I'm writing to seek your advice and/or recommendations.

My mum is late. She died 2 years ago and since her demise, everything has turned left for us - her children. We were deserted and left to fend for ourselves by our uncles, aunties, and other relatives that we thought were with us when my mum was alive. My dad is still alive but he only pretends to care about us. I can't even remember the last time he has done something good for any of us. Our school fees, food, everything, were taken care of by my mum.

There is a 50-year-old man who we were later told is our distant relative. His house is a stone's throw away from our house. When I was at home, I used to run errands for him, like going to the market to buy things for him. So it was normal. He used this same method on my sister. He took advantage of my sister's naivety and impregnated her. She's barely 16 and I swear to God, she has not known any man until this bastard did this to her. He even ran away from home and plan to come back when tensions are low.

Note: we left her in the village with my dad and my brother. We, the elderly ones left the village to hustle in the city. We have not settled and we couldn't afford to take them with us.

Please I need your advice. What should be our next line of action? He's 50 and won't marry my sister. There is also a high tendency that he won't even take care of her and the baby.

Please what should we do? We are all we've got and nobody to turn to to help us fight this battle. What should we do?

Thank you.

Hope you're not thinking about abortion?

Nwagod26:
It is disheartening and I sincerely sympathize with you on this sad experience your family is facing.
First, show love,care and tenderness to your kid sister. She needs it more than anything else. Help her go through it all.
Secondly, do not abort that child. Hustle extra for both of them. Ignore your father and all who have ignored you.
Third, lodge your complaints at the traditional council, the police and every other relevant agency that you can get to. But do not allow any useless feminist or people of such politicize the matter.
Fourth, my dear go and hustle. Hustle legitimately and do not be ash to do odd jobs. Una no get money na e cos the useless man fit do the nonsense wey e do.
Fifth, face and persevere through the hard times with God as your back up. Take it personal to succeed.
If nothing is done to bring justice, do not push. Rather push back the tears, be there for your siblings and lead them unto greatness.
Finally, years later, succeed,ask of the man, carry out your justice. Bleep up no de sour.
My humble and candid opinion

Imustnottalk:
Please don't allow them terminate the baby he/she may be a blessing child same way they told Genevieve then now she happy for now terminate the child I know it's rough now bet me every child will grow up

vince96w2:
report to FIDA..NAPTIP ..Police won't do much

Mstick:
Genevieve had both financial and moral support from her family, what does OP sister have? obviously they're poor and their only surviving parent doesn't even care.

Why even talk about Genevieve? Why don't you talk about the millions of single mothers in Nigeria struggling to get by without help from the government or family? Heck you nairalanders even take pleasure in demonizing them.

No

Yes sir. But he ran away from home. We are still in search of knowing where he's hiding.
