Unknown gunmen in the early hours of Monday have raped a girl (name withheld) to death at Bomadi Community in Delta State.
The incident occurred along the Bomadi gas plant station.
It was learnt that the gunmen forced their way into the apartment of one Elder Wuduowei, father of the deceased when he was away from home to attend to his sick wife in the hospital.
It was also gathered that the deceased who was alone in the house, earler alerted her father at the time the hoodlums were trying to force their way into the house but her father unfortunately failed to relay the information to security operatives prior to the incident.
The father of the girl took the blame for failing to alert the Security Operatives on time.
He said,”My delay in reaching out to security operatives led to her untimely death. Armed robbers attacked my house when I was not around and my daughter tried to reach me to alert me.
“I was in the hospital because my wife is in labour before I could reach the head of vigilantes who accompanied me down it was already late. We saw her body cold after we saw signs of her being violated by the hoodlums.”
However, the Delta State Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Hafiz Inuwa said he is yet to confirm the incident at the time of filling this report.
