Man rapes own mum and ex-wife's mother, blames spirits

A 'sex beast' has allegedly admitted raping his mum and former mother-in-law, claiming a spirit drove him towards older women.
David Shekari, 32, also reportedly blamed booze for the attacks on the two women, aged 65 and 70, who were sleeping at the time.

He is said to have told police his horrified wife left him and wed another man after finding out he had abused his own mum.
In a sickening confession, he allegedly described his mother's screams after she awoke to find him on top of her.

He also reportedly told of how, after the first attack, he went to his ex-wife's mum's home in the dead of night and raped her.
“I don’t know if I am under a spell," he is said to have told officers.
"But whenever I am drunk, a spirit comes into me and I will be going around town looking for women to rape."
He added: “I have been beaten up over this issue yet I can’t still control myself whenever I get drunk.”
Shekari, a farmer, reportedly told police in Nigeria that his wife had "abandoned" him over his "penchant for raping old women".
‘I raped my mother during a festival when I got drunk," the suspect, who is being held by officers in Katari, allegedly said.
“I couldn’t find any old woman to rape and when I got home, I found my mother sleeping and I penetrated and raped her.
“My mother screamed when she saw me on top of her and our neighbours gathered. Everyone saw that I was drunk and when I became sober I begged her to forgive me and she accepted.”
He is said to have added: “When my wife heard about it she was angry and she left the house and went back to her parent before she later found another man who married her.
“Not long after that, I attended another festival in my wife’s community and I became drunk again.
“In the dead of the night I went to my ex-wife mother’s house and found her sleeping and I raped her.
“When the woman woke up and saw me on top of her, she shouted and people came around, and caught me.
“I was given the beating of my life before I was asked to go.
“I don’t know what usually comes over me when I am drunk. That spirit is what normally pushes me to rape old women.”
Shekari's alleged actions are said to have left elderly women in the area in a state of panic, with some left unable to sleep.
The suspect was arrested by cops probing armed robberies and rapes in the local government area of Kaura, reports The Nation.
He allegedly made his confession after his arrest.

A Police Special Intelligence Response Team source told the paper: “It was some vigilante men that assisted us in arresting David, when we came to look for him.
“We found him and his gang members in their hideout. We arrested them and recovered a motorcycle from them.
“The vigilante men also informed us that David has been a major threat to old women living in their community and has formed the habit of sneaking into their apartments at night to rape them.
“They said he had on two occasions raped his own mother and mother in-law and promised to turn a new leaf, when he was caught by the vigilante group.
“They added that David’s activities had thrown old women in the community into panic as they now shut their doors completely at night and could no longer sleep with their eyes closed.”
Katari is situated around 40 miles north of Abuja.
