The video was titled “We Have 7 Bedrooms and One Parlor”, it was filming five boys taking turns, raping two girls and it went viral on the internet.
According to multiple social media reports, the boys were arrested following the release of the video, but they’ve not been released.. and this has generated massive outrage.
The boys, who are all reportedly below 20, allegedly invited a girl over, and order to protect herself, the girl decided to go with another friend. On getting there, they were drugged and raped and the sexual assault was filmed and later released online to shame the girls.
A Facebook user shared photos of the boys so that they may be made to face justice, but other Facebook users left a comment alleging that the boys were arrested and were released immediately.
Narrating details of the event, NewsRoom360 writer, Oge Nwaanyi Neni wrote the following on her Facebook page;
“There is a very disgusting and heartbreaking rape video going viral now tagged “we have 7 bedrooms and one parlor”. While watching some of it, I was caught between crying and crying. Yes! I felt like those girls were my siblings or even daughter. What has this world turned into?
“This is not even the time to advise these men to go and pay little money in brothels or get a sex-worker because these are children. None of them is above 20 if not 18. This calls for alarm. Parents of these days show off their wealth by how expensive their children gadgets are not knowing they are endangering them.
“I remember one day in my sister’s shop, a lady came in with her son to buy him a phone. The type of phone this woman and her son were describing left my mouth wide open. Now! These children are given these phones with little or no parental guidance. Even those that inspect, most times don’t know where and what to restrict them from using. This is not the only problem, this is part.
“Videos and Movies play a great role here too. Then after learning those rubbish, they look for a nearby girl or boy to practice the evil they have learned. It’s a bad one! It is so sad that a girl below 20 will be invited by a guy she barely knows and she will accept to go without proper knowledge of where and who he is with.
“Well… These 5boys raped two girls. One of them was said to have invited the lady who went with her girlfriend.. On getting to the said address, they met them smoking (I don’t know what they called the particular one they used) but they were forced to smoke and were drugged. They drugged and raped the both of them, then they made a video of both moments.
“There are a lot of things in that video that scares the shit out of me. I almost threw up. That video is very scary. I wish our parents sees these and begin to take precautions. God forbid oh!
“When will ladies even learn? The other day Nkechi made a post of the things she would do if a stranger invites her over. As funny as it sounds, we should all learn that. Which kind nonsense gist be this sef.
“Mtcheww. To those girls, I wish they find those boys and make them face the law. I pray they find reasons to move on with life again. See, from that video and they way it was recorded, it wasn’t just the rape alone. They did it with the intent to tarnish their image(s).
“PS: Biko I beg you people in God’s name or the name of anything you hold dear, don’t come to ask me for those videos because will ignore you except you have a tangible reason because they need to find those idiots. The thing is still paining me.”
Nobody should walk free of the full brunt of the Law from such brazen violation of a fellow human being, regardless of age. Responsibility and empathy are natural, no child needs the education to understand the wrongness of posting such raunchy video.
