Security Guard Rapes 11-year-old Girl To Death
The Niger State Police Command has arrested a security guard Godwin Dauda, for r@ping an 11-year-old girl to d3ath in Suleja.
The incident began on the September 20, 2026 when a report was made at A Division Suleja that 11-year-old Christabel Albert had gone missing after leaving home the previous day to attend a relative’s birthday ceremony.
Later that evening, a pastor of the Apostolic Church, Suleja, reported the discovery of a body inside a well within the church premises.
The police, with assistance from local government welfare officials, recovered the body and took it to General Hospital Suleja, where it was later identified as that of the missing girl.
Police investigations led to suspicion of the 26-year-old security guard attached to the church who had reportedly fled the premises.
He was subsequently arrested on the 23rd of September around Kuje in the Federal Capital Territory, where he was said to have gone into hiding.
The spokesperson for the command, SP Wasiu Abiodun, who confirmed the incident in a statement on Friday, September 25, said the suspect confessed during interrogation to luring the girl into his security room, where he s3xually assaulted her, resulting in her d3ath.
“After I lured her to my room and had s3x with her, when I discovered she had d!ed, I was scared, and, for people not to catch me, I dropped the corpse in the well and ran away to Kuje area of the FCT, Abuja,” the suspect said.
The Police said the suspect further confessed to disposing of the body in the well in an attempt to conceal the crime before fleeing the area.
“During interrogation, he confessed that he lured the girl to his room and r@ped her to d3ath,” the PPRO stated.
“In his effort to conceal the crime, he dropped the corpse in the well and ran away.”
The Command says preliminary investigation is ongoing, while the suspect will be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department in Minna for further investigation and prosecution.
