Upon interrogations, the suspect claimed he had no ideas of the victim’s age.

Whether she agrees or not is immaterial… she has not gotten to that age where she can decide for herself. The offence of defilement is a very clear one. Provided she’s not of an age where she can give consent; consent is immaterial and will be treated as defilement,” Edafe added
