Armed Robbery Suspect R*pes Male Victim In Lekki, Lagos

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a suspected robber, Ebere Nwankwo, for allegedly attacking and raping a male victim in the Lekki area of the state.

20-year-old Ebere Nwankwo, after dispossessing his victim, identified only as Martins, of the sum of N22,000, allegedly had anal s*xual inter-course with the victim.

This is just as two other robbery suspects – Jelili Babatunde and Ramon Haruna – were arrested by the police in the Isokoko, Agege area, while dispossessing pedestrians of their valuables.

In the Lekki incident, which occurred last Thursday, Punch reports that Nwankwo, who was armed with a gun, sneaked into Martins’ apartment on Goshen Estate in Lekki at about 4pm.

He was said to have ransacked the victim’s room and found N22,000.

It was learnt that Nwankwo thereafter allegedly ordered 16-year-old Martins to get on the bed, while he had s*xual inter-course with him.

The suspect was nabbed by operatives from Maroko Police Division, who were on patrol in the area.

A source said the victim’s screams during the inter-course alerted the policemen.

He said, “The robber had threatened to force his victim to an Automated Teller Machine, where he would get more money from him. In the meantime, the suspect asked his victim to lie on the bed and he started molesting him.

“Some policemen, who were patrolling the estate, heard screams from an apartment and they drew close. When they forced the door open, the suspect and the victim were found having anal s*x.”

Nwankwo confessed to police in his statement that he had s*x with his victim to get magical powers.

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, said the robbery suspect would be charged to court with sodomy and stealing. “The suspect has confessed to the."
