In Adamawa State, a 30-year-old man admitted to defiling a two-year-old infant girl.
Buguwa Kwaji, who is now being investigated by Adamawa State Police Command, blamed his actions on alcohol.
Buguwa, who resides at Aljannaru village in Song LGA, where he perpetrated the crime, said,
“After drinking a gin known as voltage on that fateful day, I lay down, and the little girl came and started playing on my body. I raped her because I could not resist the urge for sex.”
He was caught in the act by the little girl’s elder sister, who raised an alarm that prompted a crowd of angry neighbours to seize him and hand him over to the police.
Platinum Times gathered that Buguwa is married and his wife is pregnant.
Confirming the development on Saturday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Suleiman Nguroje, said the Commissioner of Police, Afolabi Babatola, has ordered a thorough investigation into the matter and prosecution.
