Brutally Tortured, Metal Inserted Into Her Private Part By
Nigerian Policemen (A MUST READ)
We have heard about the different tough measures used by the
members of the Nigerian Police force to torture accused persons in the past,
but i bet this one will shock you all.
A middle-aged woman, Mrs. QUEEN AKINDELENI, of Anu Oluwa
Complex, Jolu Road, Sango-Ota, Ogun State made these revelations.
This is her story in her own words....
I was a property developer and seller of building materials
at Edu Agbara, Ogun State prior to my arrest, detention and injuriously torture
sometimes in October, 2009.
I woke up one morning and suddenly allegations were made
against me was that I was responsible for the death of my husband Mr. Ayodele
Akindeleni whose where about could not be ascertained at the time, then the
matter was reported at Agbara Police Station, Agbara, Ogun State.
I went to Agbara Police Station, Agbara,Ogun State, myself
on the 12th of October 2009 to report the matter after I was threatened by the
family of Mr. Ayodele Akindeleni that they will kill me and my Children,
Charles Ighovoyiwi and Esther Ighovoyiwi, if I did not tell them the where
about of Mr. Ayodele Akindeleni.
I made the compliant on the threat to my life and the lives
of my children, I was not permitted to leave the Police Station, and as my
children came one after another to look for me, they were also arrested.
They expected me to make a confessional statement that I
killed Mr. Ayo Akindeleni, after his family member, James Akindeleni, came to
complain.
The D. P. O. of Agbara Police Station at that material time
told the team investigating the case that they should not call the case murder
case, but rather missing of Mr. Ayo Akindeleni.
My son Charles came to look for me after he came back from
school and it was the heavy noise of his cry that made me knew he was around.
Charles later told me and I believe it to be true that it was the back of a gun
that was used to hit him at his legs.
I totally do not know anything about the disappearance of
Mr. Ayodele Akindeleni, neither was I responsible for his alleged death, on a
Saturday I was taken to one bush to go and see one skeleton/Carcass they called
the carcass of Mr. Ayo Akindeleni. The next day which was Sunday the team of
Police Officers who investigated the case at Agbara Station, excluding DCO 1,
whose name I did not know, and the D. P. O., came to station and took me out.
The team of Police Officers who investigated the case at the Police Station,
Agbara, Ogun State, tortured me with cruelty that I must confess that I killed
the alleged deceased person.
I can only remember the first names of two out of the team
of Police Officers who were involved in this case at Agbara Police Station,
Agbara, Ogun State; the first names are Shadrach (DCO 2) and Raphael. Shadrach
gave me one straight metal with four corners, which looked like window
aluminium to carry and tell him whether it was heavy or not. I told him the
metal was heavy and he took it from me and Shadrach started using it to beat me
repeatedly on the left side of my body from up to down.
Then later the three other Police Officers joined him
(Shadrach), they beat me with the metals in their hands and led me to the
Barrack (the Police residence within the premises), as I was struggling to
climb the veranda Shadrach used the metal in his hand to strike me hard at my
back, I fell down immediately and could not stand. As they were doing these I
was screaming and wailing with pain that was beyond description.
They later took me into a bathroom, and i was asked to
remove my under wear (pant). The team of Police Officers who investigated the
case asked a female officer, whose name I could not remember, to insert the
metal which Shadrach gave her into my private part. The Female Police officer
asked me to be screaming as if she has inserted it and I did as she instructed
me.The Female Police officer later told them that she had inserted the metal
into my private part but I did not confess.
Then Shadrach came to the bathroom and took the metal from
the female officer and tried to perceive it smell/odour to confirm if it was
truly inserted into my private part. Shadrach discovered that the metal was not
inserted into my private part, he took it himself and held me with force to the
ground, with my legs wide opened and forcefully inserted the metal into my
womanly.
Shadrach inserted the metal into me forcefully, I screamed
with the whole of my strength and I felt as if life had gone out of me.
Then immediately he removed the metal I faintly saw a heavy
rush of blood out of my womanliness, but was weak and helpless. I was held and
partially carried back to the passage of the Police Station, Agbara where I was
laid on the floor. I was there on the floor blood continued to flow and I
discovered that I eventually fainted, because I woke up and I saw myself soaked
with water. When the D. P. O. of the Police Station saw me, he was surprised
and asked whether they tortured me and they responded that they did not torture
me.
I was not attended to by anyone and I started smelling.
About four days later a man was invited to examine me and they later brought
drugs for me to use. I discovered that with the drugs I was given the flow of
blood reduced. I then noticed that urine was just leaking out of my private
part and I could not control it at all.
My daughter Esther Ighovoyiwi who was twelve (12) year old
at the material time was arrested on the same allegation at Agbara Police
Station, Agbara, Ogun State by the team of Police Officers who investigated the
case. While Esther Ighovoyiwi was in detention, though only for that day when
she came to look for me, at Agbara Police Station, she was severally slapped
and inhumanly assaulted, by Shadrach, to the extent that she became sick and
had her ears discharged pos uncontrollably under groaning pain. Esther
Ighovoyiwi was eventually released on bail after her arrest and brief
detention, which I knew, was unlawful.
My son Charles Ighovoyiwi who was Fourteen years old (14) at
the material time was arrested, detained and tortured by the team of Police
Officers who investigated the case, they beat up Charles Ighovoyiwi, using
sticks on him and even threatened to kill him. My son spent one month and
twenty nine days in detention at Agbara Police Station, Agbara without being
charged or convicted of any crime.
After I was transferred to Nigeria Police Force, State
Headquarters, Elewe Eran, Abeokuta, Ogun State, my son told me that he was
released by the influence of one man, whose name he did not know. The Police
Officers who were equally part of the investigating team at the Nigeria Police
Force, State Headquarter, Elewe Eran, Abeokuta, knew I was tortured and blood
and urine was flowing from my womanliness. They then went on to summon the team
of Police Officers who investigated the case at Agbara Police Station and he
asked me to identify the person that inserted metal into my womanliness, which
I did.
However i was not provided with medical attention at Elewe
Eran, Nigeria Police Force Headquarters, Abeokuta throughout my stay there. I
was took into the Prison Custody, Nigerian Prison Service, Ibara, Abeokuta,
Ogun State, with blood stained clothes and I was walking half-bent and I had to
lean on someone, sometimes standing objects and walls to support myself. Even
the staff of the Nigeria Prison Service, Ibara, Abeokuta, Ogun State at the
material time, including the medical personals at the Prison’s Clinic knew that
my womanliness was releasing urine uncontrollably and I had chronic pains in my
back, bones and other parts of my body.
I was later given treatment in the Clinic of the Nigeria
Prison Service, Ibara, Abeokuta, Ogun State, and I was referred to Federal
Medical Centre, but there was no money for my treatment. I was not taken to any
Hospital for treatment outside the Nigeria Prison Service, Ibara, Abeokuta,
Ogun State.
During my stay at Ibara, i was interviewed by delegates from
Citizens’ Right Department, Ministry of Justice, Oke Mosan, Abeokuta, Ogun
State, I was also interviewed by one Barr. Ashaolu Joshua Olabowale , sometimes
in July, 2010, who I identified as a member of the National Youth Service Corps
because of the NYSC uniform he wore at the welfare Department, Nigeria Prison
Service, Ibara, Abeokuta. Barr. Ashaolu Joshua Olabowale told me and I very
believed him to be true that he was serving with Ministry of Justice Ogun State
as 2010/2011(BATCH A) member. He then told me that he was interested in my
case. On subsequent visit to the Nigeria Prison Service, Ibara, Barr. Ashaolu
Joshua Olabowale told me that he was handling my case personally, but was
supervised by a senior State Counsel at the Citizens Right Department, Ministry
of Justice, Ogun State. I was released on 2ndof September,2010 by the Order of
the Chief Magistrate Court, Agbara based on the Advice of the Director of
Public Prosecution, Ministry of Justice, Ogun State. I was made to understand
that the allegation against me was frivolous, baseless and lacks merit,
particularly considering the facts and evidence of the police.
They said that i and my children suffered for what we did
not know about. After my release from the Prison Custody Barr. Ashaolu Joshua
Olabowale took me to the Federal Medical Centre, Idi Aba, Abeokuta, where I was
examined at the Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology and I was asked to
run several tests. My Hospital Card number is 80626.
After the medical examinations and tests were carried out,
Barr. Ashaolu Joshua applied for my Medical Report. I was confirmed to have
Vesico-womanly Fistula (VVF), which it main symptom is continuous involuntary
discharge of urine, because of the abnormal openings in the internal parts of
my Core/womanliness caused by the metal the Police Officer inserted into my
womanliness. I was scheduled to undergo further examination which I was
preparing for when I lost contact with Barr. Ashaolu Joshua O. All my efforts
to get him proved abortive, because I left the place where I was squatting and
I was not using a mobile phone. I did not hear from him or see him till the end
of his stay in Abeokuta.
I went to the Citizen’s Right Department, Ministry of
Justice, Abeokuta, Ogun State and I was told to go and treat myself because
they cannot take up the matter for me. I was told by one of the Doctors that
examined me that my case requires a major repair surgery and I know it must be
very expensive. They said i could not go for the final examination and
treatment because I had no money. I am still living with my situation and it is
even worst now, because I ooze foul odour and release urine involuntarily,
apparently an effect of a ruptured bladder occasioned by the inhuman torture I
suffered in the hands of the Investigating Police Officer at Agbara Police
Station, Ogun State. So because I could not afford to treat myself in Abeokuta
and to avoid the way I am being openly embarrassed by the way I smell, the way
I am rejected and avoided, I relocated to a village in Ogun State, where I now
farm to survive.
I was a successful business woman before, had taken a long
walk from Agbara POLICE DETENTION TO ELEWE ERAN, ABEOKUTA POLICE DETENTION TO
NIGERIA PRISON SERVICE CUSTODY TO ABEOKUTA TOWNSHIP AS WONDERER AND NOW IN A
VILLAGE IN OGUN STATE LIVING ALONE, APPARENTLY WAITING FOR MY END.
I have been kicked out of the public, I have to withdraw
because I am often rejected and avoided. I have lived with continuous flow of
urine from my womanliness and have used cloths among others as sanitary pad to
pack my Core/womanliness for more than one thousand (1000) days. The trauma of the
barbaric acts still frightens me.
The V. V. F., general body and internal pains and other
health issues confirmed in my body after examinations still remain untreated.
My consultant can be reached on 07051647234 This injustice
left my children, Charles Ighovoyiwi and Esther Ighovoyiwi with a bitter and
dreadful story, which they will live with for the rest of their lives. Charles
Ighovoyiwi, who was a student of Tech 1, Technical College Igbesa, Ogun State
missed all school activities for a whole school term. Esther Ighovoyiwi (age
12) who was a student of Edu Agbara Community Secondary School had to leave
school and fend for herself. My children are now drop outs and have no hope of
going back to school. My little Esther had to become a mother when she never
wanted.
