A middle-aged man, Kenneth Nwangu, has been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment by sexual and gender-based violence court sitting in Anambra state for defiling his nine-year-old daughter and only child.
The judgment was delivered in a three-count charge brought against the defendant by the state government following compelling evidence proving him guilty as charged.
He was consequently sentenced to seven years imprisonment on count one of the charges, having sexual intercourse with a nine-year-old, an offence punishable under section 34 of the child rights law.
