Over 20 ladies were allegedly raped at Flavour's free concert in Enugu

It has been reported that several young ladies were victim of sexual harassment and rape during the musical concert of Nigerian singer, Flavour at the Michael Okpara Square, Enugu, on Saturday.

A Twitter user, with the alias, Naturize, who said she was an attendee of the said concert also claimed she was an eye witness.

Naturize, in a series of tweets, alleged that many girls were gang-raped.

She said, “So, your favourite celebrity decided to give back to the community, made his concert free, but his fans (most) present at the Square, started to rape girls like it’s part of the script.

“They not only raped girls, but went in turns, protected the rapists from security agents and started to play with the victims’ undies! Please, someone tell me this is Sodom & Gomorrah.

“Never seen or heard of rape being this glorified. Truth is, if your community is filled with toxic people, don’t live in denial; fix your problem even if it means not putting up a show. Yes, please don’t, moreso, don’t make it worse!

“Before you come here to ask what the girls wore (which just shows your low IQ), girls on jeans were raped! These boys came with X-Men claws. They ripped jeans like it was a wet piece of paper, still had the nerves to wear condoms, have an erect and rape a lady till she bled.

“They had their governor on seat; over 100 Force men on standby; bouncers were there too, but those retarded fools still found a way to leave girls naked. How do you rape a girl in front of her boyfriend? Are you normal? They beat and tossed boyfriends off! They bought condoms! I swear, those guys are far from normal!

“People had to donate clothes to cover victims at intervals! It was that bad! Thought they said sex is cheap, so please, walk down the street and buy it cheap or take it free; don’t rape girls, don’t ever do it!”

She blamed the incident on the free entry, saying she would not visit the state again.

Another attendee of the concert, Adedotun, whom Naturalize confirmed was also at the event, vowed not to return to the state after the incident.

“I’m leaving Enugu this morning (Sunday)! What I saw yesterday (Saturday) was a country with more youthful problem than we can imagine! Yesterday, the amount of girls that were sexually harassed and raped at the concert was heavy! Concert became a rescue operation for innocent girls. Vile men!” he tweeted.

He absolved Flavour of blame, saying the crowd was uncontrollable.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Enugu State Police Command, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu, in a statement on Sunday, said the police were investigating a case of alleged attempted rape during the musical show.

The police spokesman said a suspect was in custody for attempting to rape a lady at the concert.
