31-year-old arraigned for committing sodomy in Lagos


The police on Wednesday arraigned one Samson Ndubuisi, 31, before an Apapa Magistrates’ court for allegedly having canal knowledge of an 11-year-old boy.

Ndubuisi, who resides at No. 3/4, Umuaka Close, Ilufe Junction, Alaba Market, Lagos, is standing trial on a two-count charge of conspiracy and sexual assault by penetration.

While testifying in court, the Prosecutor, ASP Soji Ojaokomo said the suspect committed the offences on April 12 at his apartment.

Ojaokomo further told the court that Ndubuisi had sexual knowledge of the victim without the boy’s approval.

“The complainant said that on that fateful day, he went to fetch water at one Mrs Doris Ezenwa’s company.

“He said while he was fetching water, the accused called him and took him to a room where he forcefully had canal knowledge of him through the anus.

“The boy said that each time he went to fetch water Ndubuisi would take him to the usual spot and have sex with him.

“The complainant also said that the accused also bribed him with N100 each time he slept with him.

“The 11-year-old boy said they were caught by two men, who were Ndubuisi’s colleague at the water company.

“The boy said the accused threatened to kill him if he dare tell his parents about it,’’ Ojaokomo disclosed.

According to the prosecutor, the offence runs contrary to Sections 259 and 409 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.

Ndubuisi on his part pleaded not guilty to the offence.

The presiding Magistrate, Mr Patrick Adekomaiya, consequently granted the suspect bail in the sum of N 50,000 with one surety in like sum.

Adekomaiya however adjourned the case till May 28 for trial.
