Precious, 16, was detained by members of the Ondo state security group, code-named Amotekun, for reportedly raping nine local women as well as his brother’s wife.
Adetunji Adeleye, the state commander of Amotekun, described the suspect to reporters on Friday, November 11. Adeleye claimed that the suspect had violated his brother’s wife while traveling outside of the town. Precious allegedly entered his brother’s bedroom, saw that the wife was unclothed and dozing, and took advantage of her.
Precious confessed to the crime in an interview with newsmen before admitting to the rape of nine additional girls at Laosun, a farm settlement in the Ondo West local government area.
“I have raped nine girls in Laosun. Some of them are 19 or 25 years old, and I will sneak into their rooms at night and begin sharing beds with them. I don’t threaten them with a gun or a pair of knives. When I was discovered, they would sometimes beat me before leaving. I have previously been detained. For stealing 25 liters of palm oil, I was detained. To acquire a phone, I needed to raise the necessary funds. When I got there, I discovered my brother’s wife sleeping in the open. I entered the room and joined her in bed.
The suspect would soon be charged in court, according to the Amotekun Commander.
