A
21
years
old
man
by
the
name
Ogbeide
Joshua
from
Ozalla,
Edo
state
and
also
a
400-level
student

Administration
at
Ambrose
All

has
been
arrested
for
allegedly
raping
a
9-year-old
child
for
the
4th
time
in
Ekpoma.
According
to
the
source;
“Yesterday
26th
day
of
November
2024
Joshua
Ogbeide,
came
to
the
shop
where
he
goes
to
buy
cigarettes
daily
to
smoke
as
usual.
Towards
evening
the
owner
of
the
shop
caught
him
raping
her
9-year-old
daughter.
The
mother
couldn’t
do
anything
but
cry,
a
few
seconds
later,
some
neighbours
heard
about
it
and
quickly
confronted
the
rapist
but
he
wasn’t
even
remorseful,
instead,
he
spoke
back
at
them.
He
was
then
reported
to
the
Iruekpen
police
division
but
when
the
police
officers
got
to
his
lodge,
they
couldn’t
find
him.
About
an
hour
later
a
neighbour
caught
this
rapist
trying
to
run
to
his
village
Ozalla
and
raised
the
alarm
other
neighbours
gathered
and
held
onto
him
before
going
to
call
the
police
officers
who
took
him
to
the
police
station.
The
little
girl
said
this
was
the
4th
time
he
was
raping
her
and
he
had
told
her
he
was
going
to
kill
her
if
she
ever
tells
anyone
what
he
was
doing
to
her.
