UNILAG undergraduate tells how she was raped by Ndi Okereke’s cousin

There's a fairly known society girl and ex-model who was raped by some guy from a prominent Lagos family. When I heard about the incident and approached her to report the story and put the guy on blast, she refused. Begged me not to because she didn't want the embarrassment and stigma of being a rape victim. This guy got away with rape.

Ladies, if a man rapes you, you need to speak out. If he gets away with raping you, he will find another victim because he'll believe he's untouchable. Please don't let him get away with raping you.

Now to this story, a cousin of former DG of the Nigerian Stock Exchange Ndi Okereke-Onyuike, and actress Stephanie Okereke's cousin, Prince Daniel Okereke, 37 (pictured above), has been arrested for allegedly raping a 22 year old UNILAG undergraduate named Arinola. And she didn't keep quiet. She fought back by first destroying his property, then she got him arrested. She tells her story after the cut. Please read...

Very disturbing video: Watch this woman brutally assault this little girl

I don't know where this happened but this woman has to be arrested. This video is one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen. That is definitely not the girl's mother. It must be a nanny or something.

She slapped, punched, violently threw her to the floor, stomped on her back, kicked her and dragged her like a rag doll. And that girl doesn't look more than a year or two. Watch the heartbreaking video after the cut. Please let's find this woman! And mothers pls mind the people you leave your kids with
