A 16-year-old boy, simply identified as Precious, has been arrested by men of the Ondo state security outfit, codenamed Amotekun, for allegedly r@ping his brother’s wife and nine other women in the state.
The teenager is said to have walked into the bedroom of his brother, who was out of town for work, where he saw the wife naked and sleeping, and then took advantage of her.
Precious, while being paraded before newsmen at the command’s headquarters on Friday, November 11, admitted to committing the crime and confessed to having raped nine other girls at Laosun, a farm settlement in Ondo West local government area.
“In Laosun, I have raped nine girls. Some of them are 19 or 25 years, in the night, I will go into their rooms and start sleeping with them. I do not use gun or knives to threaten them. Sometimes I would be caught and they would beat me and leave me. I have been arrested before. I was arrested for stealing 25 litres of palm oil. I wanted to gather money to use it to buy phone. I came to the house and saw my brother’s wife sleeping naked. I went into the room and slept with her”, he said.
