A Magistrates’ Court in Minna on Friday ordered that a 20-year-old student, Babangida Husseini, who allegedly impregnated a 16-year-old, be remanded prison.

The police charged Husseini with two counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a child and impregnating a student.

Magistrate Mariam Kings ordered adjourned until July 16 for the prosecution to call its witnesses, even though Husseini pleaded guilty to the charge..

Kings held that the adjournment is to enable the police present more evidences to establish its case considering the gravity of the offence.

The Prosecution Counsel, Insp Aliyu Yakubu told the court that the father of the girl, Bilyaminu Musa, filed a petition on June 7.

Yakubu said the father alleged that, the defendant had sex with his daughter, an SS2 student of Government Day Chanchaga Minna and impregnated her.

The offence, he said, contravened the provisions of sections 18 (2) and 25 (3) of the Child Rights Law of Niger State.

wow FTC.. this is dedicated to whoever wants it.
as to the thread..
how old was she when the offence occured? can't the parties take another means of resolving this issue? maybe order the guy to marry the lady?
I have once seen where a court gave some strange orders in order to train or caution the defendant. this may be so in this case
anyways I am always available if you require legal advisory services.. meaning I be lawyer and trouble be my work.

I'm aware that sexual intercourse with a minor is a crime but "impregnating a student"? Really?

Nowadays kids eye Don tear finish o

When I was 16 the only thing I used my erect penis for was Urination

Nigeria

Lol. Young man don buy market.
Interestingly, in another 2 years, it would've just been a matter of 2 consenting adults.

Can we call this a crime.

Tbh, most 16 year old females are more psychologically and sexually mature than a man who is 20.

Na just 4 years difference na.

The only reason this is an issue is probably because the guy is broke. Maybe a mai lemu or a mai shayi and daddy had better plans for his daughter to marry an alhaji.

at this age

The thing wey prick and pussy go cause. I’m also sure the girls family are using leg

Sometimes you need wisdom in prosecuting a case against the offender.

The would-be father of your grandchild is to be given 7 years imprisonment for giving you a grandchild.

And it would be in record forever!

If the boy was Adenugas son, what would have been his reaction?

how is this now a crime??
this isnt rape
she enjoyed it, over and over again
why remand the guy??

Whatever happened to people using condoms

The way underage kids are engaging in sexual relationship is becoming alarming, just visit any government secondary school and you'll be amaze by their their advances towards you, one nearly made me had an erection

haaa! this world is turning to something else, Adult sex, children sex.

And Ned Nwoko walks free

The justice system should put into consideration for him to provide for the baby.

Did he rape her, why put him behind bars after he plead guilty to the charge. This case is better resolve between the families involve.

So sad...

Why bring a child into the world if you cannot afford to comfortably cater for them? Except the guy is financially ok and the girl is up to 18, this is wrong...

Unfortunately, this is statutory rape, babe is not 18.

However, how did the Northerners marry underage girls without landing in prison?

How long would he be in prison? "what happens to the girl and child?

I am thinking they should release the boy and let him take care of his upcoming family.

in old times both must be married at once, the boys father should take the blame, and do the girls family the honour of taking responsibility of the girl and child

Sad. A lot of people engaged in this kinda activity as teens.

PussyKing:
how is this now a crime??

this isnt rape

why remand the guy??

She's under 18. Case closed

The police charged Husseini with two counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a child and impregnating a student.

At 16, most girls are already sexually active and of course, one of the byproduct of sex is pregnancy.

Abeg, free the boy jare.

Do they actually arrest people for statutory rape in the North?

I thought the guy would normally be celebrated for his exploits?

Oh wait, he has no surname. He is broke and broke people are under the law
