Visually Impaired Man Arrested For Defiling 12 Year Old Housemaid

A middle aged man said to be visually impaired has been arrested by the Police in Lagos for allegedly defiling a 12 year old girl.
The incident occurred on Friday, 20 th of June at 32, Mosalasi Street, Maza-Maza bus stop where the victim lives with the suspect and other family members.


The victim started residing with the family early January this year in a three-bedroom apartment they occupied after she was introduced to Kingsley’s sister, Maurine who made her a housemaid to Kingsley Anyanwu’s old mother.

According to Vanguard, the suspect, Kingsley Anyanwu forcefully had sex with the victim inside his bedroom, thereby inflicting serious bruises on the victim’s private part.
The suspect allegedly asked the victim to come to his bedroom after his wife went to work, supposedly to help him read out a message on his phone.

“Immediately I entered his room, he grabbed me, forcefully removed my pants and raped me,” said the victim.
The victim however, ran out of the house when the suspect attempted to rape her a second time. She was said to have taken refuge at a church in her neighbourhood, and had to pass the night there since she was scared to go back home for fear of being beaten up.

The victim’s aunt, who reported the matter to the police after taken her to the hospital for examination, had this to say:
“I received a call from Mrs Maurine on Saturday that they were bringing back my niece because she was wasting food and that she ran out of the house.

“On Sunday, Mrs Maurine brought her home. When she left, I questioned my niece, it was then she opened up that Uncle Kingsley sexually abused her.
“Immediately I took her to Adeniyi Jones, Primary Healthcare Centre. After medical examination the medical officer confirmed that she was raped.
 The report confirmed bruises I saw in her private part and the medical officer issued a referral slip for us to go to LASUTH,” her aunt said.
