Nigerian rapper, Zoro, petitions police over rape allegation levelled against him

Following the rape allegation levelled against him, rapper Owoh Chimaobi Chrismathner also known as Zoro has petitioned the Nigerian Police Force to carry out an investigation.

Zoro was accused by an Instagram handle @mystic_sweetness of raping her at his friend’s residence at Magodo on April 20, 2015.

Not satisfied with challenging the allegation in court, Zoro has proceeded to asking the police to investigate the issue.

He wrote: ”Dear Fans,

Further to my last post, my team (legal and management) and I have reported the rape allegation levelled against me to the Nigeria Police.
I want to implore you my fans, friends and family to kindly disbelieve any lies from the unscrupulous lady while the Police continue their investigation on the matter.

I am more than certain that my innocence will vindicate me eventually.

Finally, it is important to fight against false rape accusation. The implication of false accusation on the ‘falsely accused’ is grievous and causes mental, and psychological damages which can affect business and personal relationships. It will also deter rape victims from speaking up because of disbelief and stigma.

Thank you very much for all your calls, messages and well wishes during this period.”
