“The Kabiyesi had invited me to his wife’s apartment on the said date at about 8pm. On getting to that house, he was alone at home.
“He asked me if I ever knew my husband was having an affair with his wife, an allegation which I denied. He therefore informed me that he would like to do the same thing with me.
“Thinking he was only joking, the kabiyesi went on to hold me and assaulted me, stripped me naked until I raised the alarm which drew the attention of neighbours who came in to rescue me. His wife was not at home as that time.
“I fainted and was later admitted at the General Hospital, Iwaro-Oka, on that same night and was discharged the next day.”
Awogbamila said the case was reported at the police station but alleged that the DPO mounted pressure on her to drop the case.

“Do not allow me to suffer this injustice in the hands of this kabiyesi who has also been threatening me through his agents.”
Awogbamila asked the police authorities to re-investigate the case and charge the monarch to court appropriately.
