The suspect, 35-year-old Huzaif Adam, is a staff of an international Non-Governmental Organization, allegedly committed the offence on Tuesday around 303 Housing Estate in Maiduguri. The suspect was said to have lured the victim, who was in the company of other girls and was scouting for menial jobs around the University of Maiduguri area.
Adam who subsequently invited her into his apartment to supposedly do chores overpowered and raped her. “Immediately she got in he turned on the power generating set and then after a while, we started hearing her screams,” one of the girls said.
“We were worried so we went and knocked very hard on the door but he wouldn’t open and when he eventually opened we asked what the matter was but he rebuffed us saying all was well and that she was busy with her chores. We insisted that we want to see her but he declined to say she was busy. Then we saw her crying and cursing him for what he did to her; she said she’d rather d!e than go home and bring sh*me to her family.”
After the incident, the victim committed su!c!de by stabbing herself with a knIfe; one of her friends confirmed the development to journalists on Wednesday. The deceased teenage girl displaced by the conflict lives with her parents in the Kaleri area in Maiduguri.
The Executive Director of Women in the New Nigeria and Youth Empowerment Initiative, a local NGO, Comrade Lucy Yunana also confirmed this on Wednesday.
