Quote
"We are doing our best to help her overcome this traumatic period quickly. We will rehabilitate her and give her a renewed sense of life. A new house is to be built for her family while we are also setting up a new business for her mother who is just a petty trader to help her sustain the family. Her father is out of work. You can see the place they live. It is sad. It is painful that people, adults who should care for and protect young ones now become predators and prey on such little children. We will not tolerate that. The security agencies will fish out the culprits and bring them to book."
Mrs. Ikpeazu further revealed that she has tasked relevant bodies like the International Federation of Women Lawyers(FIDA) and the state Ministry of Women Affairs to assist and follow through to ensure fairness in the investigation and the subsequent judicial process. They accompanied her on the visit to the girl's home.
