A 29-year-old man, Mr. Ademola Aroboto has been arrested for allegedly molesting the 11-year-old daughter of his landlady.
The act was committed on Wednesday, a day after he packed in to his current residence at Akindele Street, Iju, Lagos State.
Aroboto, who dropped out from the University of Lagos in 2004, had traveld to Libya the same year and was said to have been deported to Nigeria in 2009.
The mother of the girl, (name withheld) was said to have been devastated on hearing of the rape of her daughter.
Aroboto confessed to having committed the crime but said the girl actually came to her apartment, and lured him into committing the act. According to him, the victim, came to his room and seduced him.
But in a swift reaction, the Lagos State Police Command spokesman, Mr. Frank Mba, who paraded the suspect before journalists in Lagos on Thursday, said the act was an ‘acquaintance rape.’ He added that Aroboto‘s alibi was an after- thought to curry public sympathy.
He advised parents and guardians to monitor their wards very closely and be close to them for exchange of intimate information and guidance.
Mba said, ”This is what can be described as ‘acquaintance rape.’ Acquaintance rape is very close to victim rape. It takes place when people who are very close to a girl-child take advantage of her. They are neighbors. Sometimes, they are people who have filial relationship with the girl-child and they take advantage of this relationship and abuse this trust; they abuse this relationship and rape or defile little girls.”

Why would a 28yr man rape a girl who could be his child or small sister. He said that she seduced him isn't he old enough to know that this is prison for him and so he should stay far away from her. The story didn't say that she was a virgin. Is it that this girl was used by her mother to get funds from him on seeing that he doesn't have any money she cried out RAPE.
Well the story says allegedly and so the lawyer has to find a way to show that his client is innocent. There are mothers who turn their girl child into sex slave as early as possible. Some of them blame poverty. Not because this guy was dropped out of college and deported back home means that he is bad. Sometimes things are placed over our lives to keep us down. I pray that God will give him coverage to overcome this and he turn his life over to Him.
Godly WISDOM is to Fear God. His UNDERSTANDING is to resist the devil.
