He allegedly engaged the older of the two in sexual intercourse and violated the younger sister by inserting his finger into her private part after his attempt to achieve penetration failed.
The suspect’s arrest came after the seven-year-old girl was sent home to bring recharge cards for her mother’s customers, it was gathered that she stayed several hours before she returned.
The girl revealed the sad incident after her mother continuously asked why she took so much time.
“My Lord, the mother prodded further while reminding her that whoever commits sin must confess, otherwise such a person will go to hellfire.”
The little girl then became remorseful, opened up and revealed that Pastor Chukwu had sex with her in their corridor.
“While the girl was confessing, her younger sister also revealed that the same pastor had removed her pants and inserted his finger into her private part,” Police prosecutor, Inspector Raphael Donny said.
The Pastor was remanded in prison custody without an option of bail for defiling the two underage girls, and the court further directed the prosecutor to duplicate the file and send to the DPP for advice. The matter was adjourned till May 6, 2019.
