Tragic: 6-month old baby raped; Buhari and Osinbajo visit

The Wife of the President, Aisha Buhari and the wife of the Vice President, Dolapo Osinbajo, on Friday visited an eight-month-old baby, Khadijah Bashir, who was raped at six-month by her mother’s friend in Kano State.

Khadijah was allegedly raped by 30-year-old Muktakar Muhammad, with the assistance of his wife, who held the girl’s legs apart. The baby is currently undergoing treatment at the Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Kano State.

Mrs. Buhari described rape as man’s inhumanity to man, stressing that the culprits must be brought to book.

Mrs. Osinbajo was speechless at such inhumane act and full of empathy for the little girl.

The Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, had earlier visited the hospital and he urged security agencies and the state government to ensure that the culprits were brought to book; he promised that the Emirate Council would do its best to ensure the welfare of the child and her parents.

The Kano State Government through its Commissioner for Information, Muhammad Garba, said that it was deeply saddened by the news of the rape allegedly committed by a close confidant of the victim’s family and that it would ensure that whoever is found involved would be prosecuted.

According to the statement, Kano State Governor, Gov. Abdullahi Ganduje had directed the state Ministry of Justice to prosecute “whoever is involved in this sordid sexual crime..”

The News Agency of Nigeria [NAN] reports that Section 283 of Kano State Penal Code Amendment Law provides life imprisonment as maximum punishment for rape.

  1. My programmer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on a variety of websites for about a year and am concerned about switching
    to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net.

    Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?
    Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!

  2. Everything said made a lot of sense. But, what about this?
    what if you were to write a killer title? I am not suggesting your content is not good., but
    what if you added a headline that makes people want
    more? I mean Tragic: 6-month old baby raped; Buhari and Osinbajo
    visit – Healthfacts is a little vanilla. You should peek at Yahoo’s front page and note how
    they write news titles to get viewers to open the links. You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab people interested
    about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion,
    it might bring your blog a little bit more interesting.
