The Anambra State Government has arrested a 30-year-old man, Chinonso Ezekiel Nwaebonyi for allegedly def!ling a 7-year-old girl in Awka, the Anambra State capital.

Chidinma Ikeanyionwu, the media aide to the Women and Social Welfare Commissioner who disclosed this in a statement on Thursday, August 29, 2024, noted that the 7-year-old girl and her twin brother were born to her parents after ten years of childlessness.
According to the minor, she, alongside her twin brother, usually goes over to the next compound to play since the holiday started before the suspect started defiling her.
She revealed that the suspect allegedly had carnal knowledge of her about 5 times.

On inquiry, she was briefed on what had been going on and she quickly went to the next compound to complain to the guardians of the suspect after which she took her daughter to a pharmacy before coming to the ministry.
Meanwhile, the suspect, who had earlier denied the allegation, later confessed to committing the said crime but only once.
According to the suspect, he never forced the girl but only asked her to raise her clothes and lie down on the ground.
The suspect has been handed over to the police where he will be interrogated and charged to court.
