#JusticeForUwa: Nigerians demand justice for young girl raped to death in a Church

Published on

Several Nigerians have taken to social media to demand justice in the rape and battery of Uwaila Omozuwa, which subsequently resulted in her death.

Uwaila, 22, was brutalized and raped by savages.

A family source who shared the story online revealed that Uwaila died on Saturday midnight at the University of Benin Teaching Hospital (UBTH) where she was rushed to after the attack.

Uwa who recently gained admission to study Microbiology at the University of Benin was said to have gone to a Redeemed Christian Church of God building to study.

Right inside the church building, she was raped and beaten with a fire extinguisher, according to the family source.

“The church’s security officer had gone to collect the keys to the church from its keeper when he was told that there was someone in the church already,” the source wrote on social media.

“He got to the church only to find Uwaila in a pool of blood and next to her was the fire extinguisher which was used to bash her face.

“He ran back to inform the key keeper and his wife, who went to the church to meet her lifeless, thinking she was dead. After careful observation, they noticed she moved her hand and quickly rushed her to the hospital.

“It was at the hospital that Uwaila revealed she was reading all alone when some unknown men came into the church, beat, raped and hit her head with a fire extinguisher. However, she later passed on.”

Nigerians call for Justice

Below are some of the reactions that have been pouring after reports emerged confirming the death of the young Uwa.

This is coming at the same time Nigerians are calling for justice for Tina, a 16 year old girl that was shot dead by a police officer’s stray bullet in Lagos.
