“Those that attempted to resist were beaten blue black and many people got injured but I cannot say the number of people affected.

“One of the female students that was rapped is a virgin and they rapped her twice and we are holding her because she wants to commit suicide.

“The number of hostels in Ifite -Awka is about 300 and including upstairs and bungalows but from what we got after the incident more than seventeen students were injured and that number of those rapped may be nine or ten or even twelve.”
