The Nigerian government has arraigned the wife of the Benue State Polytechnic lecturer, Andrew Ogbuja, for her alleged involvement in the death of 13-year-old Ochanya Ogbanje.

Miss Ogbanje lived with the
Ogbuja’s before her death in October, 2018, after being allegedly raped
by Mr Ogbuja and his son, Victor, for five years.

Mr Ogbuja’s
wife, Felicia, was arraigned at a Federal High Court in Benue State for
her alleged involvement in the events that preceded the death of the
teenager.

The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking
in Persons (NAPTIP) accused Mrs Ogbuja of aiding the rape of Miss
Ogbanje during her stay at their residence.

The agency had
accused Mrs Ogbuja of allowing the persistent rape of the late victim to
continue, through her silence after the crime was brought to her
notice.She was arraigned on a two-count charge for the alleged offence.

Miss
Ochanya died of Vesico Virginal Fistula (VVF), an infection which
resulted from years of sexual abuses while she lived with the Ogbuja’s
