A female corps member deployed to Bayelsa State for her one-year mandatory service, is now under intensive care as Doctors are battling to save her life following her ordeal in the hands of robbers. 

It was gathered that after the armed robbers overpowered the neighbourhood vigilantes who are usually armed with only sticks and machetes, they invaded the ‘Corpers Lodge’ at Yenizue Gene, a suburb of Yenagoa, about 3a.m. yesterday and the corps member was reportedly assaulted and raped by a 15-man gang of robbers.

According to a resident of the community, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, the hoodlums reportedly went to the NYSC Corpers Lodge where they forcibly took away a female corps member and she was repeatedly raped by the suspects who took her in turns.

News Telegraph reported that local sources said though the police were alerted, there was little they could do because the area had been thrown into darkness by the Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company (PHEDC). A vigilante, who gave his name simply as Tonye, said the security men were afraid of running into an ambush.

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Asinim Butswat, who was contacted by newsmen however said he had not got a clear information about the incident.

Few months ago, suspected members of a cult also attacked a Corpers’ Lodge at Angalabiri community of Sagbama Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, severing the hand of a Corps member.

The Corps Member, identified as Luntis Julius from Taraba State was machete with cutlass on his left hand by the suspected hoodlums. Also stolen from the Corpers’ Lodge were a Laptop and two mobile phones. It was learnt that the invasion by the criminals, which happened at about 2.30am caused panic among Corps members serving in the Sagbama Local Government Area.

To serve Nigeria is not by force. Which kind Wahala be dis

The incidence of rape cases in the country is alarming and absurd . Something drastic and urgent should be done to check the trend . The trauma suffered by victims cannot be overemphasised . I think there should be a harsh legislation that would serve as deterrence to people who engage in rape . The minimum jail term they should be given is 35 years . Also , rape cases should be given accelerated hearing . In the same vein , our law should also frown on any form of sexual molestation . When you go to the market , you see male traders sexually harassing female buyers, forcefully holding them and dragging them. This is where it begins . When you jail people for touching girls , ladies and women illicitly , rapists would know that the game is up

So bad!

I miss olden days Sango and Amadioah

Civilian robbers will Rob, Rape wife in front of her husband, Rape Children infront of parents, and in some cases KILL. Then when they are eventually caught and about to be lynched, one idiot will come and start preaching about forgiveness

If this had happened in the north, the peoples tribe and religion would be vilified and tagged as responsible.

In this case, watch as we all blame the culprits without touching their religion.
Some will even still blame PMB.
