Governor Theodore Orji of Abia State has sacked a
commissioner in Abia State for allegedly raping his
11-year-old house maid to death early in the week.
The commissioner (names withheld) allegedly raped
11-year-old Anurika when she returned from school.
The housemaid, who reportedly could not withstand
the rigor of forced sex, allegedly collapsed in the
commissioner’s bedroom and was rushed to a
hospital along Amuzu Ukwu in Umuahia.
On getting the hospital, it was gathered that the girl
gave up the ghost and the hospital authorities advised
the commissioner to take the corpse to the Federal
Medical Centre (FMC), Umuahia for autopsy.
The confused commissioner was said to have hired
an ambulance which took the corpse to FMC, but
before then, the father of the girl had informed his
relations living in Umuahia about what had happened
and they invited the police.
