Man absconds as 13-year old rape victim gives birth to baby girl
A 13 year-old girl who was sexually assaulted by a tailor in Misau local government area of Bauchi State has been delivered of a baby girl at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH) Bauchi.
The teenage mother had a “spontaneous delivery with no issues”, doctors confirmed to newsmen Saturday.
Newsmen had reported that the teenage mother, who hawked ‘pure’ water to support her family financially, accused a tailor, Malam Babayo, of raping her in an uncompleted building and later forcing N50 in her hand to keep her quiet.
However, the Executive Director, Prison Inmates Development Initiative, (PIDI) Mbami Iliya, said after the philanthropist read the investigative report by newsmen on the rape allegation, he reached out to his Organization through the National Human Rights Council (NHRC) to help the teenager and her family.
