A 71-year-old serial rapist, identified as Alhaji Ganiyu has revealed
that he sleeps with young girls to prolong his earthly sojourn. Alhaji
Ganiyu who is a hunter and a night guard was recently arrested for
molesting a seven-year-old primary one pupil, (name withheld) inside his
one room apartment after luring her with biscuit. He was arrested by
men of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), after the
victim’s mother rushed to the security agency for help.
Giving his statement, Ganiyu admitted to the crime
saying his actions were carried out so he’d live longer, adding that he
regrets all his actions.
“I slept with young girls to elongate my stay on earth. That is all I need to extend my stay. It was not for ritual or money making as people are saying. All the same, I regret all my actions,” he said.
Meanwhile, parents and relatives in the area are now calling for thorough and prompt investigations into the suspect with a view to bringing him to book.
According to Daddy Fash, uncle of another molested girl, he suspect needed to be brought to book to serve as deterrent to other unknown rapists.
Another complainant said, “My daughter had once been a victim of this man and no one could say anything because the man is highly diabolical. His antics are well known to the people of the area but no one dared confront him. It is now that the whole world has seen what we have been suffering in silence over for a long time”.
He demanded that immediate and thorough investigation be carried out on the matter.
The spokesman for the NSCDC in the state said that the full investigation into the crime had commenced while efforts are on to apprehend the accomplice of Ganiyu who is now at large.
