Sex DemonOkada Rider Nabbed For Raping 14-Year-Old Tuberculosis Patient A serial rapist Andrew Ekanem could not even pity a poor tuberculosis patient.

Residents of Akilo Street in Bariga area of Lagos State, are still shocked when a 35-year-old commercial motorcyclist, popularly called Okada, Andrew Ekanem, was arrested by the police for allegedly raping a 14-year-old girl who has been undergoing treatment for the past six months due to tuberculosis.

The Akwa Ibom State born man was said to have cornered the girl one early morning when she went to ease herself and forcefully had carnal knowledge of her.

Her mother, Mrs. Adenike Aderinkomi, claimed the suspect penetrated her daughter through the anus and vagina.

It was around 2am on Monday when my daughter woke up and said she wanted to go and ease herself. I was having my quiet time and didn’t know when I slept off. I woke up about 15 minutes later and didn’t see her in the room. I woke her father up and he said he didn’t know her whereabouts.

We both became anxious and went outside to search for her. Another neighbour also joined us in the search.

Mrs Aderinomi further stated that she was shouting her daughter’s name in the backyard, but did not get any response.  However, about 10 minutes later, her husband saw their daughter coming out of Ekanem’s room. Her mother said she pulled her away from the growing crowd of neighbours and pressed her to talk.

My daughter became afraid. She then told me that while she was on her way to ease herself, Ekanem grabbed her and took her inside his room to sleep with her. She said while I was shouting her name, he covered her mouth.

People seized him and wanted to beat him up. But I had to quickly report the matter to the police very early in the morning so people would not take the law into their hands.

A police report has it that investigation revealed the suspect was fond of the act and usually induced his victims with money.

That was not his first time of doing such a thing. This particular girl, he had slept with her about three times. He was always giving her money ranging from N200 to N500.

But this time, he was caught red-handed and that was why the girl’s parents are insisting on taking him to court. When he was queried, he didn’t give any reason for his behaviour. He’s just fond of sleeping with little girls. She sustained bruises in her anus and vagina as a result of the sexual assault.
