A former Nigerian soldier has shared a distressing account of his mother being raped by a neighbor in the barracks where he resided.
Through his Twitter handle @FestusNG, the former soldier recounted the incident. He revealed that while he was serving in the 146 Battalion, his mother visited him in the barracks. After leaving for work, a neighbor, who was also a soldier, unlawfully entered his residence, attacked and raped his mother.
”Rape is a disgusting thing. When I was a soldier serving in 146 battalion. My mum visited me, brought foodstuffs, cooked all sorts of food and served my neighbours (soldiers). At 6pm, I left for my duty. My neighbour broke into the ceiling and gained entry into my apartment.
Stabbed my mum twice at the back and raped her. My mum was a mess and almost took her own life. I didn’t forgive myself until I left the army. When you plan of raping anyone, you plan to destroy them. Say No to Rape.” he tweeted
