47-Year-Old Guard Sleeps With 6-Year-Old Girl In Lagos

A 47-year-old security guard, identified as Victor
Osubie, is in police custody for allegedly defiling
a six-year-old girl, Bola (not real name), in
Sagamu Road, Ikorodu, Lagos.
Suspect...
was alleged that the suspect, who works at an
events centre used by the victim’s mother as an
event planner, slept with Bola severally. But the
bubble burst on May 30, 2016, when he
reportedly slept with the victim.
Sunday Vanguard learned that Victor had
intercourse with the victim after she returned
from an errand. He allegedly took the kid inside
his room, asked her to pull her clothes and then
had intercourse her.
The victim was taken to Ikorodu General Hospital
for medical examination which confirmed that
she had bad intercourse severally.
The case was reported at Sagamu Police
Division, Ikorodu Road but the suspect allegedly
fled when the police came to arrest him. He
was, however, arrested, penultimate Wednesday,
while the case was transferred to the State
Investigation and Intelligence Department, SCIID,
Panti for further investigation.
Narrating how she was allegedly slept with by
the suspect, the Basic Two pupil said: “Uncle
Victor called me to help him buy MTN N100
recharge card for him. When I went to the place
where they sell the recharge card, the people
were not around. So I went back to give him his
money. After giving him his money, he called me
back, asked me to pull my pants and he put his
manhood inside my private part. Uncle has done
it five times to me. The first time was after my
graduation ceremony (from kindergarten) last
year July.”
The mother also spoke. She said: “While I was in
the hall on that fateful day trying to put finishing
touches to the decoration for an event, my little
daughter walked up to me and said she couldn’t
find her elder sister Bola. “Immediately I began
to search for her. I went outside the hall to look
for her; I didn’t see her, so I came back to the
hall.
“Later I saw her walking out of one of the rooms
attached to the gallery used by the security
guard, Victor. As she got close to where I was,
she kept saying, `Mummy, please doesn’t tell my
daddy. Mummy, please doesn’t tell my daddy’. I
promised her I won’t tell her daddy. But I noticed
she was really scared. When she got close me, I
held her and I asked her what the matter was. I
was shocked when she opened up and alleged
that Victor, the security guard whom I have
helped countless times, had repeatedly had
intercourse with her.
“Immediately, I confronted Victor, who said he
was sorry and that he didn’t know what came
over him when he slept with my daughter. I told
him it was not a matter of he was sorry, and that
it was not something that happened once. I
called my husband to inform him about the
incident and he asked me to report the case to
the police. When I got to the police station, they
took my daughter to Ikorodu General Hospital for
medical examination.
“I thank God who used my little daughter to draw
my attention to what had been happening.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known that he had
been taking advantage of my daughter since last
year. I guess Victor felt because I was busy, I
won’t notice that my daughter was not around.”
Suspect’s story
Looking dejected, the suspect, whose wife and
kids are said to be resident in Delta State, said:
“I was mad when I did it. I didn’t know what
came over me. What will my family and friends
say when the news gets to them that I had
intercourse with a six-year-old? My wife and kids
are in Delta State. I live alone in Lagos. It is only
once that I did it.”
