Girl, 13, raped by her cousin’s husband and son, dies


Ochanya, the 13 years old girl allegedly sexual abused by a lecturer and his son on several occasions, has died after a prolonged battle with Vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) and other health complications.

.
She died, on Wednesday, at a private hospital in Otukpo, Benue State. The suspects, Andrew Ugbokolo, 51, the Head of Department, Catering and Hotel Management at the Benue State Polytechnic and his son, Victor, a final year student of Animal Production at the Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi, have been arrested
.
.
According to reports, the duo consistently molested Ochanya since she was 8. She was living with the family due to her relationship to the man’s wife (Mrs. Felicia Ochiga-Ogbuja) who is her cousin.
.
.
It was gathered that the girl took ill but it was difficult for the hospitals in Ugbokolo to detect exactly what was wrong even when she collapses occasionally.
.
.
Ochanya, after serious interrogation, revealed how long the molestation had been taking place and how she was threatened with death if anyone got to know of what was happening. .
.
The lecturer was said to have pleaded that the matter be settled amicably, as it is a family issue. However, the case is currently in court and hearing will resume on the 5th of November, 2018.
