Oyo State Commercial Motorcyclist Arrested for Allegedly Assaulting Female Passenger
A commercial motorcyclist named Kazeem has been arrested by the Oyo State Police Command for allegedly assaulting a female passenger who sought his assistance for a place to stay.
The incident, recounted by Police Public Relations Officer SP Adewale Osifeso, reportedly took place on the night of October 17.
The victim, who had recently arrived in Ibadan from Lagos, sought a ride to her destination in the Adeshina area. However, according to police reports, Kazeem diverted to an unfamiliar route, claiming he needed to stop by his wife’s shop.
He ultimately took her to an area in Ogbere, where he allegedly forced her inside and assaulted her. A medical report later revealed bruising on the victim, with evidence including female underwear and other clothing items found at the scene.
During questioning, Kazeem admitted to a sexual encounter but claimed it was consensual, stating that the woman had asked him for a place to stay overnight due to the late hour. He said he took her to his wife’s shop, where they spent the night together.
The case remains under investigation as authorities assess evidence and testimonies from both parties.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
