The past 2 days there is a trending story in my country of how 15 years ago a Reverend in one of the big churches here raped a woman who is now married. The victim made a recorded video telling the story of how it happened and posted it on Youtube. Ever since people have taken sides with the victim and Nigerian social media has been on and on condemning the pastor without giving him a fair opportunity to defend himself just because they say he has a not-so-good past. I'm not saying he didn't do it or she is lying, I'm just saying the pastor is a human being and should be given a fair hearing regardless his past. Let's be realistic we all know people really do change. What if he is innocent and someone is just trying to drag him down? There's a lot going on behind the scenes these days yet people still think it's okay to judge and condemn others over the internet without remorse. What's the difference between believing a media story without proof and lynching a "suspected" thief without investigation (which a lot of those calling the Pastor out now have at one time kicked against online.)
Where I come from, I and two friends were accused sometime in January 2017 of raping a girl in the next compound and collecting her phones. They weren't sure which of us but they arrested all 3 of us in the house because their informant told them they suspect the rapist lives in my compound just because after the incident that night they saw him walk into the compound. Ofcourse we didn't do it, we were arrested in the most humiliating way and after taking our statements at the station released on bail. Note that those my friends don't stay with me they only came to visit and one of them brought his girlfriend, she was arrested too. To cut the long story short, investigation was done and the real culprit was caught fortunately for us because he left a trace. We were informed by the police and asked to come close the case. No apologies whatsoever only telling us that we can take the accuser to court if we want to for character defamation or whatever the English was and they (the same Police) can help us with the process. My dad being a "Christian" didn't want to drag the matter and asked me and my friends to forgive and forget since God helped them find the real culprit.
The summary of what I'm saying? If we're going to see the whites as perfect and copy their lifestyle let's copy same thing they'll do in a situation like this - which is to give the suspect a fair hearing until proven guilty beyond doubt before casting a stone on them. It's easy, people taking sides should try it. My opinion is based on the fact that I have not seen any solid backing to her claim online, unless there's something I haven't come across yet.
Peace.

In your case there was even a rape, just that you were innocent. What we have today are girls who will have sex witj a guy, later when they regret it, they turn around and claim raped

My story may sound like a lie to you but it doesn't change the fact that I have told my truth. Peace.
