for Education, dated Friday, June 20, 2014.Part of the petition obtained by Punch reads..
“The police will not act to protect
girls. Their failure to protect the girl-child, especially in the
villages is a disgrace to Nigeria in the eyes of the world.I took my
daughter to the local police and appealed to them to arrest and
prosecute this man but they dismissed me and said there was no evidence
and the DPO in front of my daughter said she would have enjoyed it
anyway.This is the most disgusting behavior of the police in response to
a very serious crime with long lasting psychological damage on the
victim.My daughter and the other girls who have been abused by the
proprietor deserve justice; they deserve to go to school without fear of
harm, without having to be faced by the man who raped and defiled
them.I beseech you to please help me find justice and secure the safety
of my daughter and the girls in my village.””
He says the school proprietor took advantage of his closeness to him
(the father) to commit the act and that the daughter could not tell
anybody because she had been threatened not to tell anyone.
