Magistrate Court sitting in Kirikiri yesterday sentenced a serial rapist, Princewill Nwogu to 16 years imprisonment for raping a hairdresser at a hotel in Festac in March. While sentencing the 32-year-old driver, Senior Magistrate F. J. Adefioye, said his action was a premeditated act, saying Nwogu was not fit to live among human beings and even animals. He was found guilty on counts one and two, discharged on three but found guilty on count four.
Adefioye said the prosecution called two witnesses and tendered 18 exhibits including video of the defendant having unlawful sex and five nude pictures. He recalled the statement of one of the victims (name withheld), how Nwogu offered her a drink already drugged and later found herself in a hotel in FESTAC (name withheld) wearing the defendant’s trousers.
After the judgement, Nwogu was handcuffed by the court orderly, CPL O. Michael and first taken to Kirikiri Medium Person from where he was later transported to Kirikiri Maximum Prison on commercial motorcycle (Okada). Speaking to Daily Sun, Blessing, one of the victims said she was happy to see Nwogu sentenced to prison and thanked God that she didn’t die when she was drugged and raped even as she recalled how the defendant offered him drink.
The counsel watching brief for Blessing, Arit Johnson told Daily Sun that after the second adjournment and the defendant was granted bail, she took over the case, adding “I saw the video of the rape, it was horrible and he even took pictures of the unlawful sex.
