He's Raping Her But Her Mother Say She Should Not Talk...

This is a sad story of a young girl being abused by the son of a rich family that helped she and her mum:

Dear Aunty Temi,
After my father died four years ago, his friend has been the one supporting my mother and I. Last year, our landlord gave us a quit notice and my late father’s friend offered us accommodation in his home. He and his wife were very kind to us. I was very happy and comfortable with them until their son returned from the U.S. He pressurised me to be his lover and I told him that wasn’t possible. He eventually r*ped me and deflowered me in the process.

I told my mum and she said I shouldn’t ever say anything about it again...
Because my mum didn't say or do anything about it, now he always want to have carnal knowledge of me at the slightest opportunity. I’m scared and don’t know what to do.
- Janet, 19

Below is Aunty Temi's reply to Jane...
To say I was aghast when I read Jane’s message is to say the least. I called her on the phone and inquired if there’s someone she could tell her ordeal if she no longer felt safe living there and she told me there was no one she could open up to except me. I empathised with her and advised her to tell her r*pist’s mother. At first she was very scared and hesitant until he r*ped her a second time and the thought of getting pregnant scared her.

When she informed me about the second r*pe incident, I had to convince her to report the incident to the boy’s mother assuring her that as God lives, she would never regret her action. Surprisingly, she reported the case to the boy’s mother the following day and sent me this text:

Aunty Temi,
I called you severally today but you didn’t pick your phone. I actually wanted to tell you that I told his mum about it. She was so angry with him and threatened to get him imprisoned next time he touches me and that he’ll be returning to the U.S. in the next two weeks. Thank you aunty Temi, I don’t know what I’d have done without you. And thank God the woman has been extra kind to me.
- Jane

Aunty Temi's conclusion...
Jane may have been spared the nightmare of being forced to have s*x but I tell you her mother has laid a very bad foundation for her. Now that Jane has just gained admission into the university and has inadequate funding for her needs, how on earth won’t she be tempted when men offer to take care of her needs while she “services” them in return?
