Tragedy struck in Jaba, Fanisau Unogo Local Government Area of Kano State, where a 9-year-old girl, Rumaisa Sadiq, was allegedly raped and murd3red by Manir Mai, a ‘chemist’
According to reports, Rumaisa’s father, Malam Sadiq Badamasi, had taken his three children to a local health facility in Jaba, run by Manir Mai, seeking treatment for their fever.
While two of the children were treated and sent home, Manir Mai allegedly advised that Rumaisa, the eldest, be admitted due to her critical condition, which required urgent medication.
However, instead of receiving medical care, Rumaisa was brutally raped and killed.
When Malam Badamasi returned to check on his daughter Rumaisa, he was horrified to find her condition had severely deteriorated.
The ‘healthcare provider’ reportedly attributed her reaction to the injections she received. Rumaisa was dehydrated, groaning in pain, and complaining of stomach and leg cramps.
Upon undressing her, her mother discovered severe bleeding. Unaware of the sinister circumstances, they rushed Rumaisa back to the same chemist, who finally acknowledged the gravity of her condition and advised taking her to a nearby hospital.
Tragically, the Primary Health-care Centre in Ungogo local government area also turned her away, leaving the bleeding child without medical attention.
Rumaisa was finally admitted to Murtala Mohammed General Hospital, where doctors made a valiant effort to save her life. Despite their best efforts, tragically, they were unable to reverse the damage, and Rumaisa succumbed to her injuries, Neptune Prime News reports.
Malam Badamasi received the heartbreaking news from doctors at the hospital that his daughter, Rumaisa, had been brutally raped, suffering forced penetration from both the front and back.
The alleged perpetrator, Manir Mai Chemist, was promptly arrested and charged with two counts of r*pe and homicide.
The trial judge ordered his remand in a correctional center pending trial.
Kano State Commissioner for Women Affairs, Disabled and Children, Hajia Aisha Saji, confirmed Rumaisa’s tragic d3ath in a statement, assuring that justice would be served.
