The suspect who was paraded before journalists in Minna confessed that he had been planning for the girl for a long time before he eventually got her.

“I had sex with her forcefully because that was the only opportunity I had and I wouldn’t want to miss it at that point in time.

“I have set trap for her severally but for one reason or the other, the plans failed and when this opportunity came, I didn’t want to miss it and that was why I dragged her to one Islamic primary school very close to my house and had canal knowledge of her,” he confessed.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Muhammad Abubakar had also said that the suspect had earlier confessed to the crime during interrogation.
