A 30-year-old man in Adamawa State identified as Buguwa Kwaji, has confessed to defiling a two-year-old baby girl, just as he also blamed his act on influence of alcohol.
Kwaji is currently being investigated by operatives of the Adamawa State Police Command.
“After drinking a gin known as voltage on that fateful day, I lay down, and the little girl came and started playing on my body. I raped her because I could not resist the urge for sex,” Kwaji, who resides at Aljannaru village in Song LGA, where he perpetrated the crime, said.
Kwaji was caught in the act by the little girl’s elder sister, who raised an alarm that prompted a crowd of angry neighbours to seize him and hand him over to the police.
It was gathered that Kwaji is married and his wife is pregnant.
Confirming the development on Saturday, the state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Suleiman Nguroje, said the Commissioner of Police, Afolabi Babatola, has ordered a thorough investigation into the matter and prosecution.
