A man identified as Okotete Philip was beaten to pulp by angry youths for raping a 15-year-old girl in Sapele, Delta State.
IgbereTV gathered that the suspect, said to be a sports coach, allegedly dragged the victim to the back of Glory Baptist Church at Gana area of Sapele on Monday, January 25, where he sexually assaulted her.
According to reports, he had been promising the girl that he will take her around the world and make her as popular as Nigerian track and field athlete, Blessing Okagbare.
