Mrs. Udoaka Sunday has been arrested by the Cross River State Police Command for forcing her 12-year-old daughter into prostitution in Calabar. We gathered that the woman collects money from different men to sleep with her daughter.

Neighbours at their Aka Effa residence by Akai Effa Town Hall, Calabar revealed that the mother has been collecting money from different men, including a retired 78-year-old soldier and four others to sleep with her daughter.

“That woman is really insane; she is the biological mother of the girl. How can any sane mother allow men to abuse her daughter because she is poor? There is no excuse for the act apart from insanity. She collected N15,000 from old soldier and other petty cash from four other men. Whenever she sends her out to hawk Zobo, Fufu and other items, she also reminds her not to fail to visit old soldier and other clients.”

“She has been doing this for long and mostly with elderly men, who are above 50 and mostly those receiving pension, because that is how she ensures that money keeps coming.”

We gathered that the girl reported the matter to her teacher in school, who, after confirming the information, went to a child rights foundation that exposed her and had her arrested. Police source revealed that the woman was a “bad case,” that she has five children for five different men.

A source also disclosed that: “She is currently nursing a baby, and the father of that child has not even visited since her arrest. That should tell you the kind of person she is; she is a bad person who is insane. No normal human being will allow that old-looking retired soldier to touch her daughter.”

The Cross Rivers State Police Public Relations Officer, Irene Ubgo confirmed the incident.
