GIST ME JOOR

This video clip was recorded live by yours sincerely, a passer-by-turned eye witness to something that is fast becoming a regular occurrence nowadays-rape.

It all started this afternoon, beside the Customs Quarters at the Federal Housing Estate Kubwa, Abuja, where a lady was almost raped by a purported mad man who stormed into her apartment unannounced and pounced on the hapless lady with a knife while trying to force her into having sex with him.

For sometime now, the purported mad man had been seen lurking around the neighbourhood and deceptively portraying himself as a harmless madman thus diverting attention from the danger he portends. So it was really a great shock to residents of the area when it dawned   on them this afternoon  that the supposed harmless man actually poses a grave danger to them.

The Victim of the Attack

Luck ran out on the man when people in the neighbourhood heard the lady screaming for help and rushed into her apartment where they met the duo in a tug of war. They joined hands and over powered the man whom they had been mistaken for a mad man. By then the lady had suffered knife cuts on her fingers while dragging with her attacker.

The purported mad man incurred further wrath of the crowd when he resisted attempts to hand him of to the police, an action the crowd interpreted as a sign that contrary to their thinking the man was actually sane as he knew quite well the consequences of his action.

The Purported Man

 Delivering a sermon on why he must not be taken into police custody, the purported mad men even quoted the bible. Hear him"...anything wey we wan do, we go do am in the spiritual before we do am in the physical...anything wey we no do in the spiritual make we no do am physical  because it is not agreed and it is written in the bible that whatsoever we agreed..." Unfortunately, a slap from one his listeners cut his sermon short.

After over an hour of trying to get him into the car en route the police station, he was finally subdued when a resident provided a metal handcuff with which he was handcuffed and bungled into the boot of a waiting Honda Baby Boy and driven to the Phase IV Police Station Kubwa.
