A rapist has told the Nigerian Police, Niger State Command why he has been assaulting little girls between the ages of six and eight years.
The suspect, Abubakar Yakubu, 30, of the Limawa area of Minna, Niger State told the police that he committed the act due to a lack of confidence to approach mature ladies.
According to the Commissioner of Police in charge of the Command, Mr Shawulu Ebenezer Damamman, the suspect confessed that he was timid and not bold to approach mature ladies, and instead lured the minors with a token of fifty or hundred naira.
Parading the suspect at the state police headquarters in Minna, the police commissioner told the press, “On 2/1/2024 at about 1700hrs, based on information received, the Crack Squad arrested one Abubakar Yakubu, 30 years old, of Limawa area of Minna, suspected of assaulting minor girls within the community sexually”.
