He is alleged to have way-laid the young girl on her way home, after which he dragged her into an uncompleted building and violated her.

"I don’t have appetite to make love to grown-up women; I prefer little girls to satisfy my sexual urge and enjoy doing that as long as I want it; each time I stopped, something would push me to do it again,” Vincent is quoted by the press in Nigeria as saying.

Police in Niger State have confirmed the incident, and that the suspect has confessed to the crime.
