Ebonyi council boss held for ‘rape’ of mum, two daughters

The police in Ebonyi State yesterday arrested
the Vice-Chairman of Ikwo Local Government
Area, Sunday Ottah, for alleged complicity in
the rape of a woman councillor-aspirant and
her two daughters.
The suspect was brought into the State Police
Headquarters, Abakaliki, and detained at 2.09
pm.
The rape of Mrs. Margaret Elom, a widow, who
won the councillorship primaries of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ndiagu
Achara Ward 1 in Ikwo community, was alleged
to have been perpetrated by hoodlums hired
by Ottah.
The hoodlums stole N50, 000 and a
motorcycle from them.
Police spokesman Sylvester Igbo confirmed the
incident, saying the matter would be
investigated.
He said one of the suspects confirmed that
Ottah was behind the act, an allegation he said
Ottah had denied.
Igbo said: “Mrs. Margaret Elom, the councillor-
aspirant for Ndiagu Echara Ward I in Ikwo
Local Government Area reported that some
hoodlums broke into her house and stole
N50,000 and a motorcycle valued at N120,000
and nine phones.
“She said two of her daughters were raped by
the two suspects, who were later identified as
Chidi Eze (24) and Sunday Nwogu (23). Eze was
arraigned on August 12.
“The suspects confessed to the crime and
added that they were sent to the woman’s
house to retrieve the motorcycle that was
given to her for campaign and the Certificate
of Return given to her by the State
Independent Electoral Commission (EBSIEC).”
Though the police didn’t confirm if Mrs. Elom
was raped, sources confirmed that she was
raped with her daughters.
But Ottah, who spoke from behind the police
counter, said he was innocent.
