The chairman of the committee, Bello Bakyasuwa said the suspect who is married to four wives with 20 children, confessed that he raped the girl twice.

Bakyasuwa said the suspect was arrested by the operatives of the committee while trying to rape the girl for the third time along Yan mangwarori area in Gusau town last Thursday.

]“The rapist was arrested following a report from his family members who were not happy with what he has been doing with little girls in his matrimonial home.

“He was trailed and arrested as he was about to perform his nefarious act,” Bakyasuwa said while parading the suspect on Friday.

The chairman said he would not reveal the names of both the rapist and the girl that was raped for some reasons until the suspected rapist was taken to court.

“I will not disclose the names of the suspect and the girl for some reasons but the man will be arraigned before the court by the appropriate authority where his name and that of the girl must be mentioned,” Bakyasuwa said.

The chairman said he would hand over the suspect to the appropriate authority for necessary action.

In an interview with newsmen, the 70-year-old man who has four wives and 20 children, confessed that he had canal knowledge with the girl twice at different times in his house.

The suspect said that he persuaded the girl with N100 for the first time and also gave her N200 for the second time before he was exposed by his wives who informed the anti-thuggery committee which led to his arrest.

He, however, denied that he defiled the girl, stressing that his manhood was not functional, explaining that he only used his finger to get satisfaction.

“I used my fingers to touch her womanhood and get satisfaction but I never used my manhood because of non- erection,” he said.

The suspect maintained that even the doctors confirmed that his reproductive organ was no longer functioning.
