The girl, Kehinde Gbadamosi, was said to be a daughter to Rasaq’s neighbour, Nurudeen Gbadamosi, at Odo-Ona area, Shasha, Ibadan where the victim was defiled.
It was gathered that Rasaq lured the unsuspecting girl to his room under the pretence of buying food for her.
Immediately the girl entered his apartment, Rasaq allegedly abused her.
The victim cried for help and with assistance from the neighbours was rushed to a nearby hospital in Moniya, Ibadan, for treatment while the suspect was apprehended and detained for protection.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), SP Olabisi Okuwobi-Ilobanafor, said it was unfortunate that adults still continued to take undue advantage of the minors.
Okuwobi-Ilobanafor said, “It’s an unfortunate incident, especially when an adult takesn advantage of vulnerability of minors to defile them. In this case, I want to advice parents that they should try to use whatever they have to feed their children instead of leaving their children at the mercy of predators who may put on the appearance of a sheep but may end up being a wolf raping these minors.
“So parents should take care of their children, feed them very well to fend off unnecessary enticement from human-wolves. It doesn’t have to be something expensive but they should ensure that their stomach is filled. The case has been ordered to be transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), after which the suspect will be charged to court,” she said.
