“I couldn’t resist the temptation,” a father-of-20 arrested for defiling a 12-yr-old girl in Adamawa
A 40-year-old man, Mohammed Umar has confessed to offering a 12-year-old girl N1000 before having carnal knowledge of her.
He insists the intimacy was consensual.
However, the victim claims Umar, a father of 20 children, r@ped her and threatened to kill her if she disclosed the affair to anyone.
The incident reportedly happened at Gusupan in the Toungo LGA of Adamawa State.
Umar was interrogated by the spokesperson for the Adamawa State Police Command, SP Suleiman Nguroje, on Friday.
He narrated, “She met me in my shop and said she wanted to buy sugar. While we were interacting, she requested for the sum of N2000 to refund to her stepmother. I dashed her N1000, then she agreed to offer her body to me”.
“After we finished the arrangement, she voluntarily went to where we agreed to meet. I joined her immediately and we had s3x.
“She did not complain, not to talk of crying during s3x. She enticed me for more than 3 times, but this time around, I couldn’t resist the temptation. It was God, who brought it to me.”
However, the kid countered his claim, saying “he r*ped me.”
“I went to buy Sugar from his shop, then he sent me to pick a kettle for him from a house. While searching for the kettle, he grabbed and dragged me into a room and had carnal knowledge of me.
“Afterward, he held me by the jugular and threatened to slice my throat if I dare let anyone know of the affair. He told me that since last year, he had scores to settle with my father,” the victim said.
While confirming his arrest, Nguroje said he was arrested on October 11, 2023. “The Commissioner of Police, Afolabi Babatola, had ordered the Criminal Investigation Department to ensure discreet investigation and prosecution of the suspect if found guilty.”
