The PPRO added that the suspect, at the end of the crime, would give his victims N600 to take home.

In an interview with journalists, Ejeh said he only had sexual intercourse with the said nine-year-old girl sometime in January and had not done the same to any other girl in the area.

“The incident happened in January when this girl came to my house and asked that I should give her money and have sexual intercourse with her,” he claimed.

“I said no but she said if I refused to do it, she will shout that I wanted to rape her. So, I agreed and after sleeping with her, I gave her N1, 500 and she left.”

The suspect said the community youths seized him last week when he came back from the farm and started beating him that he raped the girl and later took him to the police station.
