School offers settlement to parents of a 5-yr-old girl raped in Anambra State To Cover Up The Case

According to a Nigerian lawyer, Emeka Ugwuonye, the owners of a kindergarten in Awka, Anambra State, are trying to bury a case of rape by settling the family of the victim with N100,000.



In a post on Facebook, Ugwuonye, said: "DPA has just stopped an attempt to bury the case of the rape of a 5-year old girl in kindergarten in Awka, Anambra State.


Yesterday, DPA got involved in the investigation of a rape case involving a 5-year old girl. We got the wind that the father of the girl was offered 100k by the owners of the kindergarten where the incident occurred in order for him to bury the case.

I warned the man not to accept the money, but to work with DPA to ensure the arrest of the rapist. At the same time, DPA dispatched a team of investigators to the crime scene. Our investigators swooped in on them as they were exchanging money to cover up the case. .

They even wrote up an agreement to close the case . DPA operatives took pictures of their illegal agreement and pictures of them exchanging money. We shall now be seeking the arrest and prosecution of all those involved in this macabre deal. .

We have the picture of the girl and her father and the owner of the kindergarten handing over money to him. DPA is going to crack down on all those who harm innocent children in this country. .

The rape of a 5- year old and the use of money to cover it up are crimes we must fight against. I will be heading from Abuja straight to Anambra State where I intend to meet with the Governor over this case."
