How Armed Men Invade Corpers' Lodge, Rob, Rape Female Corp Members | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Some female members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in Akwa Ibom, Uyo, the state’s capital, have been raped during gunmen’s attack at the lodge.

According to reports, the gunmen invaded the area on tricycles at about 1 AM and carted away money, and valuables, including laptops, and cell phones.

“They arrived on a tricycle, popularly called Keke, and immediately started operation. They beamed high-intensity torchlight everywhere and pounced on every door with heavy iron and threatened to shoot us if we failed to cooperate,” one of the corps members said.

A female corps member (name withheld) said her phones, laptop, and money were taken away from her by force after the hoodlums entered her room through the back door.

“You know at that period of the night, most of us females, we used to sleep naked; the attack caught us unprepared. They beamed the torch through the window and threatened to shoot if the door is not quickly opened.

“I have never heard of this anywhere in Nigeria, even in the North, where insecurity is at the peak, that Corpers could be deliberately targeted, raped, and robbed by criminals at gunpoint.

“Is it because we are not from Akwa Ibom that no one could hear our shouts and come to save us?” She said.

Also speaking, Mr. Nsikak Ibanga, a night guard at the State Secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists which is located opposite the corpers’ lodge said:

“I raised alarm by hitting the supporting pillars holding the reconstructed NUJ auditorium. The sound reverberated across the whole area but no response.”

Another neighbour, Bassey Offiong, said;
“When I heard the attack and the outcry of the corpers, I quickly reached out to the Police at Ikot Akpanabia Command, which is very close here, but they arrived a little late, after the criminals had finished and left with their tricycle.”

Youth Leader of the area, Godwin Okpo, blamed the criminal activities in the community on the collapse of internal security organised by the residents.

“I used to go round from house to house to collect monetary contributions for the night vigilante group to secure the area at night, but suddenly they started accusing me of embezzling their money, so there was nothing I could do again.

“When I heard the incident, I moved to the place but since I was alone, there was nothing I could do,” he said.

When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Odiko Macdon noted he was yet to be fully briefed on the incident.

“I don’t have any information about the incident but I will find out and get across to you,” he said.
