According to the prosecution, Mr. Julius Ajibare, the convict, committed the offence in 2017.
He told the Court that sometime in March, 2017, the convict invited one Gbadamosi Omowale from Lagos to Ado Ekiti on the pretence that he has solution to her barrenness.
On getting to his Church at Palace of Mercy, Mathew Street, Odo Ado Area, Ado Ekiti, the convict hypnotized the victim and lured her into his room.
He, thereafter, spread a white cloth on her and raped her. The convict used white handkerchief to clean the victim’s private part and inserted a substance believed to be potash into it.
After this, he, also, collected a sum of Fifty Two Thousand Naira from the victim.
The prosecution further explained that the victim’s private part got decayed due to the substance inserted into it by the convict and this led to her eventual death.
The prosecution called six witnesses to prove the case, while the defence counsel, Chris Omokhafe Esq, called the convict and one other person as witnesses.
In his judgement, Hon. Justice A . A. Adesodun held that the prosecution proved the case beyond reasonable doubt.
He found the defendant guilty of the offence of manslaughter and sentenced him to life imprisonment.
