CHIKANKATA MAN STEALS TODDLER TO DEFILE HER FROM HIS HOUSE.

A 3-YEAR-OLD girl is currently nursing wounds on her private parts after she was allegedly defiled by her neighbour who stole her from her house while she was in the company of her elder brother aged 12.

THE incident is said to have occurred yesterday morning, around 08:30 hours in Chikankata district of Southern Province.

It is reported that the toddler's parents left the child with her elder brother to go and work at the field.

And their neighbour, Verger Chiyabu aged between 19 and 21 years of Malala village noticed the parents’ absence and thought it was the best time to lose his freedom.

He is accused of carefully yet swiftly going into his neighbour's house stole the little girl and took her to his house so he could defile her.

After minutes of searching for her, her elder brother was only alerted by her crying voice which came out from Chiyabu's house.

And when the young boy rushed to check on the house, he found Chiyabu clothed in nothing made of cotton but his skin, and was dressing the little girl while he was trying to calm her down.

Upon witnessing the act, the boy swiftly ran to the field and reported the matter to his parents who quickly rushed home and only found the victim crying as the suspect had run away.

The incident was confirmed by Southern Province police commanding officer, Auxensio Daka.

“The victim was then rushed to Malabo Police Post where a medical report form was issued. No arrest has been made yet and investigations into the matter have been instituted in order to bring the culprit to book,” said Daka.

WE WILL START ARRESTING PARENTS WHO ARE NOT TAKING CHILDREN TO SCHOOL, WARNS HICHILEMA

PRESIDENT Hakainde Hichilema has warned that government will soon start arresting parents who are keeping their children home by not taking them to school.

Speaking during the Ncwala Traditional Ceremony in Chipata yesterday, President Hichilema stated that government had introduced the free education policy, a reason enough for every parent to put their children in school.

He said it was a serious crime for parents to deprive their children of their right to education when government was not only offering free education but food too.

“We made this commitment that we will look after our people by providing free education. We will start arresting those parents who are not taking their children to school. We are paying for their fees and food so you have no reason to keep them home,” said President Hichilema.

The President further stated that government was working on irrigation projects so that the country does not suffer the consequences of a drought any more.

“Nobody has died of hunger despite having the one of the worst droughts in living memory. We made this commitment that we will look after our people that they would not die of hunger.”

“Chilala or no chilala, we shall have food going forward, that’s what we are working on because we are bringing about irrigation,” stated the Head of State.
