Students of Abia State
University (ABSU), Uturu, on Sunday, vowed to unravel the identities of five male students who gang-raped a female
undergraduate of the
institution on August 16.
The rape, which went on for an hour, was recorded by the rapists, and has been shared via mobile
phones in the university, and made its way to the Internet.
In the video, the female student was raped by five males who accused her of
insulting one of them. The girl struggled initially, crying and begging her assailants to get off her.
The men subdued her by slapping and threatening to kill her. After a while, she gave in and begged
them to kill her. The
rapists laughed at her and told her that if she didn't co-operate, they would keep her in the room and
continue raping her for two days.
"Initially we thought it was a fake video, until someone identified the girl in the video as a
student here," said
Onyekachi Ndukwe, a final year Law student of the university. "The SUG(Students Union
Government) has moved into action to try to get the boys' identities, but we are not resting until
those boys are discovered.
