22-Year Old Girl Kills Man In His 40’s Who Tried To Ra*e Her In Her Uncle’s Lekki Home

                                                                 The suspected rapist
A 22-year old girl who lives with
her Uncle and younger brother in Lekki has been detained for killing a man believed
to be in his 40’s for trying to ra*e her in her uncle’s home. The girl, who was
on her menstrual period, went out to buy sanitary pads before the man accosted
her, pretended he had a weapon and threatened to kill her if she does not obey
what he tells her. So sacred she was that she listened to him, and he ordered
her to take him to her home. On getting there, he asked her to remove her
clothes and as he was about removing his she begged that she had something on
fire. The man allowed her go into the kitchen and she came back with a rod she
hid under her cloth. As he was about wearing a condom, she hit the rod on his
head and he died instantly.

She quickly made a call to her
uncle who informed the police immediately. The police confirmed the incident
and said they actually found a pack of condom on him, but didn’t let the girl
go. Read the full story from Punch after the cut.

An unidentified suspected rapist
has been killed in the Lekki area of Lagos State while attempting to ra*e a
22-year-old woman, Ifeoma Okechukwu.

It was learnt that the incident
happened on Monday, around 12.30pm, in Atlantic View Estate, Alpha Beach Road,
Lekki.

Punch Metro learnt that Okechukwu
was on her menstrual period and had gone out to buy sanitary pads.

The Imo State indigene was said to
be on her way back home when she was accosted by the stranger.

She said, “After buying the
sanitary pads, I was going back home when I saw a man, who should be in his
forties, standing at a corner. He approached me and ordered me to take him to
my house.

“He put his hand into his pocket
as if he wanted to bring out a weapon. He said he would kill me if I shouted.

“When we got to the house, he said
I should shut the door and I did. He said I should remove my clothes; and I
started begging him, but he refused to listen.

“So I told him to let me get to
the kitchen because I was cooking something and I would be back. I got a rod
and hid it in my wrapper. I went back and moved slowly towards him, still
begging, but he refused.

“He was taking off his clothes and
wearing a condom when I used the rod to hit him in the head. I started
screaming. And then I picked the phone and called my uncle.”

The victim’s uncle, who pleaded
anonymity, told Punch Metro that he went to report the matter at the Ilasan
Police Station after learning what had happened.

He said, “I was not at home when
the incident happened and her younger brother had also gone out. So, she was
alone in the house and it was possible he had been monitoring her movement.

“When she called me and said what
had happened, I left the office and went to the police station in Jakande
Estate where I reported the matter.”

A police source told our
correspondent that investigators found a pack of condoms on the deceased,
including a phone without a SIM card.

The source added that since the
incident happened, no one had shown up to claim the man’s corpse.

He said, “He was about wearing the
condom when the girl hit him on the head and he died. His mission was to ra*e
her and steal from the house. He probably took advantage of her frail stature.

“We have got information that he
was not alone. He belonged to a gang that has been terrorising Lekki residents
for some time now. And that’s why since this incident, nobody knows his name
and address, and none of his relatives has come forward to say they know him.”

The Police Public Relations
Officer, Lagos State Command, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, promised to call our
correspondent back, but he had yet to do so as of the time of filing this
report.

Okechukwu was however said to have
been arrested and detained in police custody.
