Nigerians Kick As Police Release Rapist From Custody Without Punishment

Residents of Nguru in Yobe are outraged following the release of a rapist by the Nigerian Police.

Recall that the Nigerian Senate on Tuesday harped on stiffer punishment for rapists on the heels of the incessant rape activities going on in the country from Tina to Uwa, to Jennifer and Barakat and as many that have been too traumatized to speak up.

Nigerians on Twitter also suggested that jungle justice and castration is the only way to teach these rape apologists lessons, else they would not stop taking advantage of young women.

But the Yobe State Police Command seem not to understand the happenings as they set free a 42-year-old man who sexually abused a 7-year-old girl.

The unidentified girl happens to be living with her mother in a camp of Garbi, a suburb of Nguru town, after they fled insurgents attacks.

An activist based in Nguru who is working to get justice for the family of the victim (name withheld) said people in the town are outraged after they saw the perpetrator of the crime, Danladi Naira, walking freely in the town.

Describing how the alleged rapist was nabbed, he said “The rapist always picks the girl on her way to Islamiyya and rape her”.

Meanwhile, popular OAP, Sandra Ezekwesili blasted a man on air for saying women should not be harsh when men ask them out.

The caller said this during the Hard Facts Show on 99.3 Nigeria Info Fm, while contributing to the discussion on why men rape women.

The man bluntly said, ladies should not be harsh on men, but should learn how to respond positively when they are  being wooed.

Sandra was visibly angry as she defended the women folk and shunned the caller, cutting him off the phone line with this rhetorical question, “if your fellow heartless man responds harshly to you while asking him a question or talking to him, would you rape him?”
