BEWARE OF THAT FRIEND YOU GIVE SHELTER, 25YRS OLD DEFILES BEST FRIENDS 6YRS OLD DAUGHTER.
There was
pandemonium in the early hours of yesterday, when 25-year-old Monday Udeme was
beaten up for defiling his best friend’s six-year-old daughter at their King
Duke Street residence in Calabar South Local Government Area, Cross River
State.
An eyewitness,
Ekpeyong Bassey, who works in a bakery close to the scene, told Vanguard that
problem started on New Year eve when Asuquo, the girl’s father, discovered that
his daughter’s Pant was damp. The father, it was learned, scolded the girl for
wetting herself. But she reportedly told his father that she did not urinate on
herself. The father, Asuquo, decided to examine her and discovered that the
girl’s private part was discharging substance.
Ekpeyong
said: “Asuquo started probing her and threatening her. That was when she opened
up and told him that it was Uncle Udeme who Raped her. “Because of the New Year
celebration, Udeme was still outside. The suspect and Asuquo were roommates. So
they waited for him to come back.
“On
sighting Udeme, some of Asuquo’s friends pounced on him and started beating
him. They gave him a beating of his life.”
‘I leave
him to God’
When
Vanguard visited Asuquo, who was very emotional about what happened, he
expressed shock over what his friend Udeme did to his daughter even after
sheltering him for close to a year. In his words: “Udeme is my very good
friend. I took him in when he was dismissed from the bakery across the road,
because they accused him of always stealing their bread.
“He does
not have relatives here and the ones he has do not even want to see him anymore
because of his attitude. What he has done to my girl is despicable, and I know
God will judge him because I do not want to arrest him, neither am I going to
push the matter.
“I am
crying because he has damaged my baby’s life. She told me he has done it four
times. That is most painful.
“She was
defiled in 2014. Why are they doing this to my little girl all the time? And
they are all people I know.”
The
victim’s father further told Vanguard that although the girl’s mother left them
when things got a bit tough for him after he lost his father, he had no option
than to take his daughter back to her mother to ensure she gets all the care
she needs.
He said:
“I have called to tell the mother what happened. She would be here any moment
to pick her so that she would take care of her till they can go to the hospital
on Monday. I have also told them to leave the idiot before they say I killed
somebody this 2017.”
A
neighbour, who pleaded anonymity, corroborated what the victim’s father had
earlier said about how the child was defiled, when she was about four years
old, by a co-tenant.
