Rape saga: Stephanie Okereke's Brother Official statement out
This report was delayed by TopTrendNaija because of the difficulties we encountered trying to reach Daniel Okereke to speak out on the issue. But in recent development he has come out to debunk the rape allegations by the UNILAG student saying ..She Was a heartbroken Woman" see the full statement below…
It
took me a while to react to these baseless allegations about my good self
because I had to investigate to know if it was truly me they were referring to
or someone was impersonating me. I wouldn’t have responded but for the numerous
innocent readers who may have been misled by this untrue publications which was
never verified before going public. I thought that balanced reportage had to do
with getting both sides of the story. What happened between me and my estranged
friend was a case of a woman who claimed she was heartbroken because she
discovered I am in a very serious relationship.
She
flared up when she realized and started demanding that I must settle her since
I was not taking her seriously not to talk of marrying her. She demanded for
two million naira (N2m) and a Toyota Yaris car as settlement else she would
scandalize my name and that I know I wouldn’t want that since according to her
I come from a popular and wealthy background. I took it as one of those empty threats
until I now read about this complete sham about my good self.
How
can someone say you were beaten up by seven (7) guards before canal knowledge
of you prevailed? Someone who claimed she was sick? She must be a female
wrestler in the WWE (The World Wrestling Entertainment) for such measures to be
required before a strong tall guy like me will need to force her to have canal
knowledge of her. Someone who claimed she was raped could also muscle out
strength to destroy my properties in front of the so alleged seven guards? If I
were a nobody would she be priding in saying I allegedly raped her? I know that
the thought of possessing me is your dream but you didn’t need to go this
shameless way.
Those
that may have advised you to do this (if any) gave you the worst advice ever
because you can’t have me through cheap blackmail. Let me make it crystal clear
that there was never a case of rape nor assault. I have decided not to reveal
more shocking details on this sad episode because her family initiated peace
moves towards mine and I strongly believe in the biblical saying “to err is
human but to forgive is divine”. In a country where people can use some
sections of the media to publish unverified stories of even the highest offices
in the land, then who am I to bother if such crude treatment is meted out to a
rising star like me. Must we continue to destroy our very best because we have
a very few media platforms that are willing tools to be used. This is sad and
unkind.
Why
will they want to bring in a respected elder stateswoman Prof. Ndi
Okereke-Onyiuke, OON, into an issue where the alleged accused is an adult who
should take full responsibility of his actions and in-actions. A woman who
worked tirelessly day and night to develop the Nigerian Capital Market and by
extension the Nigerian economy which in turn put food on the tables of millions
of Nigerians and beyond. During her tenure as the DG of the Nigerian Stock
Exchange, the Capital Market was bountiful and prospered as never before. She
is an institution in this country and should please not be dragged into trivial
issues like this. She should be respected as such.
Thank
you all for doing so.
I
appeal to those sections of the media that publish unverified stories to please
verify before going public because they have the tools to make or mar peoples’
images. I hope that all the respected media sources that publicized this untrue
story will be kind enough to do a retraction. God bless you as you do so. I
thank all those that called me and sent text messages and said we know you did
not do those things. I also thank those who do not know me that said negative
things about me, and the reasons are obvious – they do not know me. My humble
advice to them is not to thrive on hearsay but facts because it is me today; no
one knows whose turn it might be tomorrow. Thank you for reading. God bless us all and
Merry Christmas.
Signed,
PRINCE DANIEL
OKEREKE.
