A 13-year-old boy allegedly raped by a 43-year-old man, Ovie Oktogbo, has died.
Ovie Oktogbo was arrested for sexually assaulting 9 boys in the Ugbowo area of the state.
Ovie, who hails from Delta State but resides in Edo State, is a security guard who specialized in using N100 and N200 to lure his unsuspecting victims who are children and teenagers between the ages of 10 and 15 years into his room where he had anal sex with them after applying a bleaching cream on both his manhood and the victim’s anus for easy penetration.
Luck ran out on him as one of his victims, 13-year-old Jeffery, fell ill with swollen feet, face, and pus all over his body.
Medical examination revealed that his liver and kidney were damaged as a result of a certain chemical contained in bleaching creams.
Upon further inquiry by the victim’s parents, he confessed that a certain man in the area forced his way and forcibly had carnal knowledge of him. He said it was in that process that he applied the cream to his anus, hence the report to the police.
On receipt of the information, the operatives of the command arrested Ovie Oktogbo ‘M’. He confessed to having defiled nine (9) boys in the area. Six (6) have already been identified and their parents also made a formal complaint to the commissioner of police to that effect while three (3) out of the nine (9) children are yet to be identified.
In an update, it was revealed that sadly, Jeffery has died. His parents are demanding that the suspect be sentenced to death. They are also calling for financial help, stating that they borrowed money to foot the medical bill to save their son who they sadly lost.
