A married woman, identified simply as Imolita, has narrated how she was raped by a security guard, Ibuchi Emmanuel, at a school where she worked as a nurse.
Narrating her ordeal before a Special Offences Court, Ikeja, Lagos, Imolita said she was on night duty on the day of the incident, while Emmanuel was also on duty that night.
The suspected rapist, according to her, refused to use condom despite her appeals.
“I asked him if he knew about the place I came from. I reminded him that I’m from Delta and women from that State don’t meet other men once they are married.
“I continued to beg him and told him that his action would cost me my marriage.
“He said anything that would happen, should happen. I told him to hold on and that I had a condom in my bag.
“He said no, and that was when he finished having his way with me,” Imolita told the court.
Imolita further said she told the defendant to get a condom because she figured it would b an opportunity for her to escape.
Justice Ramon Oshodi later adjourned the case to March 22, 2023, for continuation of trial, while the defendant was remanded in the Ikoyi Custodial Centre.
