MIRACLE: Police rescue girl,11, abducted, forced into marriage for 3 years




A 14-year-old girl, who was allegedly abducted by a man, when she was 11 years old has told how she was subjected to sex object by her captor.

Ntito Piere (not real names) was kidnapped in 2009 at Ondo town, Ondo State as she was returning from school.
She was allegedly taken to Benin City, Edo State, by her abductor, Sunday Akpan. The suspect allegedly confined her to a secluded apartment, where he had sex with her regularly.
The girl, however, regained her freedom, when the Lagos State Police Command arrested the alleged abductor, who relocated from Benin to Lagos.



Trouble started for the little girl, when Akpan, a commercial motorcyclist (okada rider) accosted her on her way back from school and lied that her parents paid him some money to bring her home.
God, however, answered her parents’ prayers last week, when police raided the suspected abductor’s residence in Lagos, where they found the missing girl, who had already been abused by the man, who is old enough to be her father.

A police officer, who gave account of how the man was arrested, described it as a miracle, as all hopes to re-unite with her were lost by both the police and the girl’s family. He narrated how a case of a missing girl was reported in Ondo State three years ago, and the signals were sent to all the police commands.

He said after thorough search for the girl without success, the parents resigned to fate, while the police continued investigation. He disclosed that a few days after, another case of missing 13-year-old girl was reported in Benin, where one Akpan was fingered by informants during investigation.
According to him, Akpan was trailed to Lagos and was arrested and the girl found in his custody.
He said the suspect confessed kidnapping the girl in Ondo because her father refused to give him his eldest daughter for marriage.

The suspect also confessed wanting to convert the second abducted girl to his second wife. He disclosed that his mode of operation was to kidnap his victim in a town and relocate with her to another state.

Akpan told Daily Sun said he did not mean to harm the girl. “I love the family of the girl very well. I went to request their daughter’s hand in marriage but my request was turned down.”
He said since he was determined to marry from the family, he decided to abduct the girl. “I took her as my wife. I did not maltreat her throughout the years she lived with me. She has become part of me.”
He pleaded with the police to let him go.

On the second girl he abducted, he said she was the daughter of a motorcycle mechanic. “I found out that her father was maltreating her, so I decided to take her to my house to enable me give her good training,” he said. The joy of the parents of the missing but rescued girl, knew no bounds as they rejoiced over what they regarded as the miracle of the century.

Meanwhile, the Lagos State police spokesman, Mr. Samuel Jinadu, has commended detectives who arrested the man. He said the victims had been handed over to their parents, while the suspect would soon be charged with abduction, defilement and other related offences.

PS : This man's head needs to be examined. I do not think he is okay at all. How can you be a specialist in abducting or kidnapping under age girls for whatever purpose. Even if he is interested in marrying from a particular family, must it be an under age girl. Can't he elope with the older girl that he went to request the hand in marriage.
