1. Ifeanyi Justin Ogu
2. Jonah Uche (final or extra year accountancy)
3. Zaki (resides in Duberville Lodge, ABSU)

Five male students of the Abia State University (sadly my alma mater) raped a young female student August 16. Sources say the victim insulted one of her rapists who then decided to teach her a lesson of her life.

In the rape video, which lasted well over an hour, the girl could be seen trying to fight off these animals-in-human-skin. When her efforts proved abortive amidst beatings, she resorted to pleading with them to spare her; but her pleas fell on deaf ears. And when she could not take the excruciating pain any longer, she begged them to kill her, instead of let her live with the stigma our society would pile on top of her already horrendous trauma. As she pleaded with them, the boys laughed and mocked her, asking her to ‘co-operate’ or face two more days of torture by rape.

Rape at ABSU has become a steady occurrence. Most victims of this ungodly act would rather keep mum over the incident than report it and face stigmatisation from the society. So far, there are over 1,356,662 downloads of the rape video.

In the video, the girl’s face is clearly seen but the faces of the five boys remain blurred. One could clearly hear them speak Igbo and English plus refer to each other by names; for instance, one of the rapists said, “Wisdom don dey talk now.” Other names the rapists called themselves during the ‘operation’ include: Chisom, Zaki, Uchenna. Zaki even bragged to the victim, “Do you know who Zaki is?” The fifth name is a little muffled but sounded very much like Ifeanyi. One of them identified himself as a 400 level law student, while another claims to be studying IT or Information Technology.

Ifeanyi Ogu Justin - one of the RAPISTS

And one of them has a car…Whereas, the federal government of Nigeria has vowed to bring these bastards to justice, -governor of Abia State – T. A. Orji – and his cabinet want to sweep this matter under the carpet by denying that the incident happened or occurred at ABSU…PLEASE, folks, let’s take matters into our own hands and do T. A. Orji’s job for him by helping bring the culprits of this crime to justice, using any means necessary: blog, Twitter, Facebook, etcetera.

Jonah Uche

These beasts are known. That the Abia State officials want to sweep this matter under the carpet clearly shows that these cowards are the children of Igbo’s men of timber and calibre. Please, let us put pressure to bear on them to ensure this innocent young woman gets the justice she deserves. Let people cast fear to the wind and come forward with information that would lead to the prosecution of these idiots…Remember, this innocent student could have been anyone’s sister or relative.

And yes, we can do it!

Thank you!

    • Clearly, the alleged rapists believed in their style of justice: brutalize a woman because she dared speak up for herself in a manner they deemed insulting: a truly horrible and warped mentality in a democratic country where the rule of law ought to reign. But, ideas like yours contribute in making our country a place that impossible for peace and where justice may never prevail. Should they be killed before they are before a judge in court for a trial? How is the brutal position you advocate different from the very brutal approach they imposed on that young woman?

  4. 247 U report. Keep on with the good work of exposing the identity of those bastards. They deserve to be punished for their atrocity and dehumanization they committed on the innocent girl. May GOD give her the heart to overcome the the psychological impart she went through.

  7. God help us in this country! When the Law enforcement agents, that are suppose to defend helpless civilians, turn their faces the other way, it is rather terrifying. And exposes how unsafe we are in this country, but for God’s intervention. Instead of the Police to do a thorough investigation and fish out these bastards, the CP of Abia State still claims that this didn’t happen in ABSU? Trying to protect the image of the State. But what’s the big deal? It could have happened in any other campus in another State. But that shouldn’t be the issue. Instead the Police, Government and Uni authorities should get to work and fish out these dogs. God protect us in this our Great Nation!

  8. This should not be swept under the carpet. Governor T. A. Orji, the National Universities Commission (NUC), the Abia State Commissioner for Education (a woman and a mother), the Governing Council and the National Council of Women Societies should wake up, shine their eyes and ensure that justice is done. I am from Abia State and it is a shame that this happened in an Abia State-owned institution. There is nothing that cannot happen in a University when unqualified candidates buy admission with money. This is not likely to be the first case involving these animals in human clothing. They have always succeeded but this should be their last bus stop. Abia State University should be sanitized.

    • Yes, you are right. things will keep going awry if admissions are bought. Why wont there be unqualified candidates, who would be there to cause mischief, when admissions are sold. Its high time we read our books as students and get into school, and its high time the governments and school authorities, stopped this unqualified admissions into higher institutions. All these are not taking us anywhere.

  9. in the name of jesus that i serve, if the people that are in office do not bring this culprits to justice,they too will face punishment from GOD,this i say,AMEN!

  10. Good work..what the Police and that useless Governor and VC cant do…how did u do yout investigation though? and are you absolutely sure that these are the culprits..because these are extremely serious allegations with very grave consequences..God forbid someone innocent is implicated

  11. y r we just in a hurry to conclude..how can i believe what uve put up here @247 .wont u pick my dp smday n put it up,cos u just want to prove a point..this is definitely hasty,very hasty.

  12. Dis bastard must be brot to book n punished n infact be killed n d governor shld betta make sure dat happens or by d grace of God if he has a daughter,dis same fin wud happen to her one way or d oda.

  13. The 1 inside ЪŦ luks lyk an assassin,that ifeanyi ogu!He shld be the first to die with the other idiots following behind!The curses and tears Nigerians have cried will reach them,the in-depth õƒ their souls,and pain will be intertwined to their future,that’s if they have!

  14. I wish a mo’fucker wld try & do such a thing to my daughter or sister. I definately won’t wait 4 d Nigerian police which is a shitty organization like d rest of Nigeria’s Government. I wld go after them & their family. My sympathy goes to d victim, i hope and pray she can overcome this obstacle & God be with her!!! I wish a mo’fucker wld!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. This at least provides a starting point and i don’t think it should be so difficult, if those people named here are apprehendede, to attempt to match their voices with those heard in the video. if at the end of the day, the culprits are found and found to be ABSU students, then the nation should demand the outright removal of the VC, ABSU and the CP, Abia

  16. Even if the fact turned up in this investigation are true, the police is powerless to act except there is a complaint to them. So the victim, if there really is one, should lay her complaint to the police.

  17. As much as I support efforts to bring those bastards to judgement, I still think caution needs to be applied b4 jumping 2 conclusions. Are we really sure dat the faces here are d actual perpetrators of d dastardly act? Let us avoid another Troy Davis case. My 2cents.

  19. Plz we dnt nid any negative ppl !̴̩̩̩̥ĩ̷̊ξяε̲̣̣̣̥….if its only d bad ‎​Ūя̲̅ eyes can see. A̶̲̥̅♏ sure U̶̲̥̅̊ knw dat d person who put this up doesnt av 2 heads so U̶̲̥̅̊ can do ‎​Ūя̲̅ own too. Mtscheew.

    • concerned citizen is right! they are alleged rapists until proven guilty..anger shouldnt make us do or same the wrong things.two wrongs dont make a right.yes we are angry,but we must do things the right way..

      again i say IFEANYI OGU JUSTIN IS NOT ONE OF THE ALLEGED RAPIST..THERE WAS A MIX UP,HE WAS TRYING TO HELP GET THE GUYS..PLEASE TAKE NOTE.

      • @Tee how do u kn he wasn’t one of them. Where u there when it happened or is he ur friend? Pls if this girl was ur sis how would u feel? Pls let’s stop supporting evil.

  21. Where on earth is the victim? Did they kill her? I dont think they will release her after all this rubbish? I dont think so. If the girl does not show up, there is not much to be done cos like someone says, she has not reported a case. If she has gone missing or her corpse found, then the police can act on what they have.

  22. PLEASE REVISE YOUR ARTICLE TO INCLUDE DETAILS OF HOW YOU VERIFIED THE IDENTITIES OF THESE MEN SO THAT WE CAN FEEL CONFIDENT IN THEIR GUILT AND ACT ON YOUR INFORMATION. WE ARE WAITING FOR YOU.

  23. To identify the rapists is not difficult, the victim knows them. Atleast when they were violating her, you could hear her say ‘Uchenna, am I not trying’ which means she knows this Uchenna. The question is, is she not willing to come up and report this to the police for it to be properly investigated and appropriate sanction applied. The person that posted these pictures, how sure is he?

  24. Bringing this cowardly bastards to book is a collective task that can be achieved….if two or three of the boys have already been identified… we must put pressure on the authorities to find and arrest them… if they are arrested, the victim can identify them, and they can identify the remaining two…. If the authorities fail to take action, then we must do our duty as citizens and undertake citizen arrest and hand them over to appropriate authorities…… this battle must be won… but above all the long term care of the victim is also very very important……

  25. I hope now Nigerian men will begin to see why increasing scores of women fail to have any respect for their patriarchal dominance over women. Respect is earned not forced through demonic evil acts like rape, battery, subjugation’ oppression and such other vices. The girl (the innocent victim) is clearly vindicated for insulting such animals. I am sure they had displayed behaviour that warranted the insults. Where will they and their families hide their faces now? This is despicable. I will dedicate my whole life to empowering women so that they can raise up good honorable sons and not ANIMALS that will bring them pain and shame all their lives like these five have done. Young girls, please continue to be brave and resist the company of any man with questionable character. Do not wait until they actually strike – You can tell a lot about someone from little things they do or say. Bravo civil society activists, bravo Abike Dabiri, bravo National Assembly and all good Nigerians. We wait for Theodore Orji to write his name in gold on this matter.

  26. Mezzie you’re a dumb ass. The state officials have clearly defaulted on their duties. The victim needs Police protection from the powers that Be to identify these animals. She needs all the help and support of your incompetent authorities

  28. Please everyone i noticed something very strange in this case. The names this girl mentioned in the rape video is also in this guys facebook friend list.

  29. I would like to know who the whistle blower is on this matter. This person will be assured of police protection since the outcome of this saga will prove to the international community and to Nigeria that Nigeria is on the side of good and will protect citizens who see evil and call it evil. My name is Jumai Salem and I’m placing a 1,000,000 naira bounty on the heads of each of these boys.

  30. Wow!This is animalistic,inhuman, baberic and rascal attitude. Oh mother Nigeria,this shameful events by may be your children. May God punish them all amen

  31. people listen up please..
    IFEANYI OGU JUSTIN is not one of them..there was a mix up,he was actually among those helping to find the alleged rapist..
    Apologies have been sent to him..please.

    dear 247,
    please correct your news..it is causing more damage

  32. Whichever way, rape is not permissible. Even with the comments of Mezie which seems to point to something unclear about that line, the girl was coherced against her will and that should be noted. It is sad the police is yet to move beyond prehistoric techniques of investigating in an age that can make linkages through what the pictures and facebook conversations of the alleged rapists convey. Sad! But lets keep thios up until justice is done and seen to be done.

  33. Wow Solution is right, the room does look familiar and the coincidence is too much that they are all friends! Please with all these evidence do we have absu people working underground to bring expose these people and bring the girl out?

  34. Thanks for all you have done to keep this story going. That said, please, correct the error in my name. It is Kaanayo Nwachukwu; not Kanayo Nwachukwu. Thanks a lot!

  35. i love what is about to happen now,if really these miscrantwho are in high places wil let justice prevail.it has bin happening in schools but no one 2 speak . in d name of the creator of the universe , no matter who their god father is, we wil prevail.i giv all mysupport and help in anyway thanks.

  36. dis is to b taken seriously..its so annoying dat d police nd investigators re too slow in bringing out d animals….IF DEY r caught GOD BLESS THEIR SOULS….AMEN

  37. Bastards. Go and rape your sisters and mothers. Normal young people went to university to study, bastards like you went to rape girls. You think you have achieved anything by raping a girl or girls. What if somepeople raped your mothers that way. You are the most uncivilized humans on earth. Apes and Chimpies in the jungle are more civilized than youv rapists.

  38. PLEASE WHERE IS THE LINK TO THE VIDEO? I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE CAN ENJOY WATCHING PORN AND SHARE IT WITH OTHERS/THEMSELVES BUT A TRAGIC VIDEO THAT WOULD HELP EVERYONE BETTER IN INVESTIGATING THE RAPE AND FINDING THE RAPIST IS SO HIDDEN!!! SMDH

  42. That the girls name is in their facebook list is nt a guarante to b raped it is betrayal. I pray that God wil heal her n bring her out of the psychological trauma

  43. PLEASE ANYBODY WITH A MOTHER, SISTER, WIFE, COUSIN, NEICE, ETC, WITH USEFUL INFORMATION ON THIS MATTER SHOULD AVAIL THE LAW ENFORCEMNET AGENCIES THE INFORMATION. YOU MAY BE THE ONE TO BE AFFECTED NEXT TIME. REMEMBER EVIL SPREADS LIKE WIDE FIRE IN NIGERIA. SEE HOW BOKO HARAM HAVE FARED IN A SHORT TIME. PLEASE SPEAK OUT NOW AGAINST EVEIL NOW.

  44. That gal is rili small to take on that muscled girl.

    It must have bn rili painful taking on that man full length unless the man was cautious not to hurt her.

    its a pity.Men ask,will not deny sharing passion with you.its natural and free/consensual.

  45. WHEN THE GAME BECOMES ANONYMOUS, CHARLATANS AND MISCHIEFS ALWAYS TAKE THE CENTER STAGE.

    HOWEVER, THESE COMMENTS MADE ON THE MATTER MAY BE RIGHT, THEY MAY BE WRONG.

    BUT AS A GOOD ARTISTE I WANT TO PERFORM AT THEIR FUNERAL.

  46. those bastards must nt be jailed but killed openly i wil b glad 2c them prosecuted.am only sry for their parent who dnt knw how to take care of their so called animals.i pray dat b4 d end of october they wil die a hurible death in JESUS NAME.

  47. i thank and encourage those working on this case. keep working. an update from today’s says the police confirmed arresting uche and zaki but says they do not seem to be connected to what happened. please keep on working.

  49. QUAND le jeu devient ANONYME, des charlatans et des maux toujours prendre le scène.

    Cependant, ces commentaires FAITE SUR L’affaire peut être droit, ils peuvent avoir tort.

    Mais comme un ARTISTE bien que je veux de performer à leur enterrement.

  50. I hope that the raped girl is still alife. I will urge everybody to help her pursue these animals. Infact, if some one can set up a thrust fund for her hospital bills,it will be great.

  51. The other day it was ATBU Bauchi ASUU N/W Chapter which appealed for N13m assist in the treatment of a female student who received an acid bath in the face. Attacker:an Igbo student whose love advances were rebuffed. Mikels father kidnapped in Jos Igbo boys/men for hire involved. An Igbo family of 8 killed in Barakin Ladi LGC of Plateau State 2of his brothers are fingered Enter this gang rape case in ABSU Igbo boys fingered Before we call on OHANEZE to put this on their agenda lets ponder on this.Since May29 1999 thugs. cultists, armed robbers.rapists, kidnappers terrorists, militants, militia, etc have become one and the same. If this is all democracy of the T A Orji’s can offer then personally i dont need this. My heart bleeds but goes out to these two victims of male chauvinism. You will all overcome with GOD in tow and the support of well meaning Nigerians and beyond our shores.MAY GOD HELP US.

  53. Wow, wonderful blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you made blogging look easy. The overall look of your website is great, as well as the content!. Thanks For Your article about Abia Gang Rape: Their Names! – 247ureports .

  54. This boys are heartless and they must not go free. I believe they’ve been doing this for long. I feel like killing them when I watch the video. The girl beg them, they refuse. I feel the girl’s pain and disgrace and am not happy about it. the fools rape their sister. No matter who their father is the idiot has to be sentence to death by butchering because they’ve kill the girl already.

  55. Excuse me, who says this guys are wanted?
    These guys move about in plain site like every other free citizen.
    This case lost steam when Abia state first lady came out to say it did not happen, that was when the whole incident was swept under the carpet. It was not her sister, so what does she care?

  56. Why are most people saying kill this boys , all we will need is to arrest them and castrate them and this will teach others a good lesson and they will live to tell their story. This is getting too much in schools. Rape armed robbery and all sorts of rubbish.
    So innocent students are really tormented in schools nowadays, this boys must not go unpunished
