A 12-year-old has been allegedly defiled by an official of the Directorate of Security Service (SSS) in his office in Benue State.
In a video shared on X on Friday, the minor told VeryDarkMan, in Abuja, that the errant officer raped her on four occasions and threatened her not to disclose the crime to anyone.
The mother said she usually sends her daughter to go grind around the SSS office where one of the officers called her and told her he liked her and wanted her to be his girlfriend.
She further said, “He told my daughter to enter inside, remove her clothes and lie on the bed. She said the man then removed his clothes and told her to spread her legs, before penetrating her. She said when she got up, she saw one white thing on the bed.”
Reiterating all that her mother narrated, the victim, who was asked how many times the incident happened, responded by saying, “four”, adding that the officer “kept his gun inside the room.”
Asked why she didn’t report to her mum after she was raped the first time, the girl said the officer warned her “not to tell her mother”, and that she was also scared of the gun.
Disclosing how she found out, the mother said her daughter had done something that warranted discipline, but her husband’s sister — who resides beside the SSS office and was at their house at the time — discouraged her from beating the child, stating that there was something going on with the girl that she was unaware of.
According to her, the sister-in-law confirmed she had once seen the girl entering the officer’s office while she was selling water near a borehole.
She added that she initially didn’t want to mention the incident because she feared being sent back to the village, especially since the alleged culprit was a uniformed officer.
The mother also stated that the matter was reported on July 16, 2025, to her brother-in-law’s wife, who is also an SSS officer. After hearing the details, she promised to escalate the case to a superior officer at the division.
While her brother-in-law’s wife reported the matter, she asked her to take her daughter to a general hospital where doctors performed checks on the minor and confirmed that she had been deflowered.
The mother also stated that she and her daughter were asked to come to the SSS office where they narrated the rape incident to the superior officers who promised to continue further investigation.
While still at the premises after narrating the incident to the SSS authorities, the mother said the daughter directed them to the office of the errant officer who had been allegedly raping her.
