A 14-year old girl from Delta state has accused her 27-
year old uncle, Chigozie Bright who of forcefully having
sex with her four times a week.
According to report, they claimed that the young
girl was brought to Lagos by her uncle in after he assured
of her of obtaining quality education in Lagos but he
turned her into a sex slave instead. The victim, whose
mother lives in Mali, added that the 27-year-old uncle, had
sex with her four times in a week between 2013 and 2016.
After her uncle assured her of keeping the relationship a
secret, the girl could not no longer cope with the torture
as she confided with her best friend in school who advised
her of reporting the case to the police. This eventually led
to the arrest of her uncle by the Isokoko division.
The victim told the police that Bright had initially sent her
to work for a woman as a housemaid but later took her to
Aguda, Surulere, to live with him saying: “My uncle
brought me from Delta State in 2013 to live with him in
Lagos and promised to give me quality education. He is
my mother’s brother. My mother lives in Mali. I was 11
years old when he started having sex with me. He initially
took me to a woman. He had an issue with the woman
and I started living with him. He had sex with me four
times in a week. He warned me not to tell anyone. But
when I could no longer bear it, I told one of my friends in
school and she advised me to report him to the police.”
Bright who has been under police custody confessed to
the crime saying: “I was the one who brought her to
Lagos. When she arrived in Lagos in September 2013, she
stayed with me for a week and I took her to a woman
because I was advised not to leave her alone at home.
She had a misunderstanding with the woman and the
woman said she did not want her again. Since then, she
had been staying with me and we had sex every Saturday.
But I ensured I did not ‘release’ into her private parts.”
