Apparently, Mr Nwankwo, 20, attacked his victim, who was identified as Martin, robbing him of the sum of N22,000. According to the police, the incident happened at Martins’ apartment on Goshen Estate in the Lekki area at about 4pm when Nwankwo sneaked in armed with a gun.
Nwankwo was said to have ransacked the victim’s room and found N22,000, after which he ordered 16-year-old Martins to get on the bed, while he had sexual intercourse with him. After the robbery, the suspect was subsequently arrested by operatives from the Maroko Police Division, who were on a patrol in the area, after the victim’s screams during the rape alerted policemen.
One eyewitness said: “The robber had threatened to force his victim to an Automated Teller Machine, where he would get more money from him. In the meantime, the suspect asked his victim to lie on the bed and he started having sexual intercourse with him.
“Some policemen, who were patrolling the estate, heard screams from an apartment and they drew close. When they forced the door open, the suspect and the victim were found having anal sex.”
Apparently Nwankwo told the police in his statement that he had sex with his victim to get some magical powers. The Lagos State Police Command spokeswoman Dolapo Badmos, said the robbery suspect would be charged to court with sodomy and stealing.
She added: “The suspect has confessed to the crime. He said the sexual intercourse was to make his victim forget about the stealing, so we will charge him to court with sodomy and stealing.”
