A 30-year-old man, Godface Ibama,
suspected to be a homosexual, was on
Wednesday arraigned before a
Magistrate's Court in Port Harcourt.
Ibama was accused of unlawfully having
carnal knowledge of seven year-old
twin brothers, Elijah and Elisha, through
the anus.
The accused was arraigned on two
counts by the police.
Ibama was brought to the court by the
prosecutor, Sergeant Kenneth Osisi,
who stood in for the River State
Commissioner of Police.
The charges read, "That you, Godface
Ibama 'm' on the 23rd day of August,

without his consent and thereby

"That you, Godface 'm' on the same

The accused pleaded not guilty to the
charges.
The magistrate ordered that Ibama be
remanded in prison custody till

on his (accused) bail would be heard.
It was said that Ibama, who was in
court without a lawyer to represent
him, risks more than 14 years in prison
if found guilty of the offence.
