Detectives in Lagos are quizzing a 28-year-old man who allegedly defiled an eight-year-old girl in Lagos. Moses Nbogo's journey to the cell started when Ezinne (surname withheld) nearly bled to death after allegedly having sex with him.

But if the police thought their job had been made even easier by the accused who, in the bid to prove his innocence, allegedly told his interrogators that he did not penetrate the girl with his manhood, but used his fingers to do it, then they have another thing coming. For as soon as he sighted journalists, the accused gave a dfferent story. 'I never touched the girl in any way," he insisted

I did not defile her
The Anambara-State born man denied defiling Ezinne. 'I did not defile her or touch her in any way. But when I came to the Police Station, I admitted doing it. I told them I used my fingers to do it and later admitted to the crime because I was tortured. I was told that she said I threatened to kill her with knife before defiling, but it's not true. Why did she not shout for the neighbours to come out since I was doing it in my house?"

Nbogo said he was surprised when Ezinne's mother came to him and accused him of defiling Ezinne. 'She came to my house few days later and started shouting on top of her voice that her daughter confessed to her in the hospital that I have been having sex with her. She said it was when she nearly bled to death that she opened up to her and called my name. She told her that I have had sex with her on three occasions in my house. In fact, she told me that Ezinne said I raped her, but how can I rape her the first, second and third time and she did not tell anybody about it until she started bleeding. If at all I raped her, she should have told her mother about it and should not have waited till she started bleeding".

She is not innocent
Nbogo further said that the Ezinne he was said to have defiled and had sex with was not actually an innocent girl before the alleged incident. 'That girl?", he said shaking his head, 'She is not innocent in any way. The way she behaves would make one wonder if she were eight years old at all. She used to come to my house with her Auntie's children, but one night she came to my house with her Auntie's children, there was power failure and I went out to buy candle in a shop near my house and left her with the other children. She was the oldest among them. When I came back to the house with the candle, I saw Ezinne with her legs wide open and was inserting the candle into her private part. I chastised her and told her that I would tell her mother about her behaviour but I forgot all about it until I was accused of defiling her. That was not the first time she was behaving like that".

I have three girlfriends
Underscoring the fact that he could get all the sex he wanted from so many other people than an eight year old, Nbogo boasted about his exploits with girls. 'I have three girlfriends in Lagos that I am trying to choose from, I am not sex-starved in any way. I am asking God to show me my wife among the girls and I was planning to get married as soon as possible before this problem started. Now I don't know if any of them would accept me back".

She threatened to deal with me
Nbogo also said that the alleged victim's mother had been threatening to deal with him. 'We are neighbours but we have been having problem for some time now. We have tried to settle the matter at home and I have also agreed to pay N15, 000 to her but she said no that she would show me pepper despite the fact that she is married to an Igbo man".

What Nbogo is yet to reveal, however, is the nature of the problem he has with the alleged victim's mother and why he would be willing to pay N15,000 to settle such a dispute outside of the court and the police.
