Chaos As 18-Year-Old Boy Impregnate 10 Girls in 5 Months

An 18-year-old boy in Anambra State has reportedly impregnated no fewer than 10 girls, sparking concern and calls for intervention from the state government.

The Anambra State Commissioner for Women’s Affairs and Social Welfare, Ify Obinabo, disclosed this in a social media video, saying that the matter was brought before her on Tuesday.

Two of the pregnant girls are his master’s daughter and salesgirl, while the eight others were impregnated just two months after he returned to the village, having been sent packing by his boss.

According to Obinabo, in a live video she shared on social media seeking advice, she said: “I want advice from the public because this one is beyond my capacity.

“This boy was sent to learn trade at the age of 18 and, three months into the apprenticeship, he impregnated his oga’s daughter and his salesgirl. He was sent packing. Two months after that, he impregnated eight others in the village.

“The mother reported the matter to my office, saying anytime she sees a girl coming towards her house nowadays, her heart would jump, and that she needs help.

This matter is beyond me; that’s the reason I want the public to help me come up with a solution. Is it spiritual?

“I asked the boy the magic he uses in luring the girls to bed, but he told me he always tells them that he loves them and will like to marry them anytime he acquires wealth.”

However, the commissioner did not disclose the community where the boy hails from, nor the name of the mother while narrating the issue.

She said: “This problem is beyond me because of the boy’s age and the number of pregnant girls involved. That’s why I need help to solve it,” Obinabo lamented.
