A fifteen year-old girl, Vivian Ogbeide, who was allegedly raped in January last year, has urged authorities to prevail on the suspected rapist to accept responsibility for the product of his action—a beautiful baby girl.
Vivian, who is visually impaired, said she was raped in a bush by Sunday Idiaghe and that he abandoned her and the baby she gave birth to in October.
She told reporters yesterday in Benin that the incident took place when she was in primary five at Idinebo Primary School at Uzea in Esan South East Local Government.
Vivian said: "My parents are in the village. They are farmers. I was raped last year.
"Sunday held me in the bush and raped me. When I became pregnant, he denied it.
"We told his parents and went to the village head where he agreed that we should go for paternity test but he did not give me any money until I gave birth."
The matter was reported at the Juvenile section of the Esigie Police Station in Benin where Sunday's father, Iziudu, reportedly agreed to pay N2000 monthly, until the baby was born but he never paid the money.
Iziudu said he did not pay for the baby's upkeep because his son asked him not to.
He said he opted for a blood group and genotype test because of the high cost of a DNA test but this was refused by the police.
Iziudu, however, promised to provide funds for the DNA test next month but said he would not pay for the baby's upkeep.
The suspect denied molesting the victim, despite threats of imprisonment if the DNA test proved otherwise.
The baby is yet to be given a name.

@winace...dont jump into conclution and judgment.coz you never know.
it once happened to me.
a girl got knocked up and pointed at me that i knocked her up.
when investigation was carried out, the truth prevailed and i was vindicated.
so when ever you hear a story please hear from both sides.then you can draw your conclution and judgement.
