Shola Owolabi, Michael Lanre and Samuel Akpan
Three randy friends have been arrested for allegedly gang r*ping a
17 year old girl and uploading the video online. However, the suspects,
Shola Owolabi (28 ), Michael Lanre (21) and Samuel Akpan (34 ), denied
it was a gang rape. The suspects said it was consensual.
According to NewTelegraph,
the suspects revealed that the recording was done mistakenly. Speaking
on the matter, the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Fatai Owoseni, who
paraded the suspects yesterday at the Command Headquarters, said the men
were fond of gang r*ping young girls and recording the girls in the act
and uploading it to embarrass the victims.
Owoseni further revealed that the suspects also confessed to the
crime during interrogation. Owolabi said he and Lanre met Akpan making
love to the girl.
He said: “I went to work that fateful day. When I came back, I went to Samuel’s house only to see him making love to the girl.
“When I entered my friend ’s room, he just finished making love
to her. I persuaded the girl to allow me sleep with her and she
accepted.
"I made love to her too. While I was doing it with the girl ,
Michael (Lanre) walked in and brought out his phone and claimed he was
using the torch on the phone to look for something in the room, but he
was filming me as I was making love to the girl. ”
Owolabi said they were arrested when the landlord of Akpan’s house,
who heard the scream of the girl, went to report the matter at the
police station.
“We were arrested in the act,” he added. Lanre explained that he also had s*x with the girl, but he did not know the girl before then.
He said: “Owolabi and I walked into Samuel ’s apartment when we
met both of them making love. We persuaded the girl to allow us to make
love to her too which she consented to. We went only one round each.
"When I brought my phone out, I only wanted to use the torch, I never thought of filming them in the act. It was a mistake.
"I did not upload the video on the internet.”
Akpan told our correspondent that he did not know his friends would come when he was making love to the girl. He said:
“I am a bus conductor. It was some boys in my compound who I used to
send on errands who saw the girl and introduced her to me. We became friends thereafter.
“The following day, she came to visit me. We were both inside
my room and I persuaded her to allow me to make love to her which she
accepted.
"My friends walked in and met us in the act. The room was dark, one of them wanted to use the torch on his phone.
"He did not know that the camera of the phone was recording
what we were doing. It was when we got to the police station they
discovered the video on his phone.
“I am not happy to find myself in this situation. I don ’t know
what to tell my parents back home in Akwa Ibom State if they see me in
this condition.”
