A 24 - year -old rape victim on Wednesday narrated to a Lagos State Special Offences Court in Ikeja how she was allegedly drugged and gang -raped by the son of a Lagos hotelier , Don - Chima George , and his friend , Olusegun Rasak .
It was Rapereported that George , the son of the owner of the Dallankester Hotels , and Rasak were arrested by men of the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly drugging and raping the victim in the Lekki Phase 1 area of the state .
The suspects had allegedly laced the victim ’s drink with a substance that made her weak and took her to the hotel , where she was repeatedly raped and videotaped.
At the Wednesday proceedings , the victim told the court while being led in evidence by the state Director of Public Prosecutions that she was invited to Kabaal Nightclub , Ikoyi , by George , who was her friend .
She said , “Initially , I did not want to go; I was hesitant . I told Chima , but he insisted I come . He also said his birthday was a few days away and he was to celebrate it. I agreed since that was not the first time we had gone out together as friends ; so there was nothing out of the ordinary. He asked me to meet him at the Dallankester Hotel and from there we would move to the club.
“When I got there , Segun was in Chima ’s room already and I waited a few minutes for everyone to get ready . We left the hotel to go to the club. We got there and nothing out of the ordinary happened . While at the club, around 4 am , I told Chima that I was tired and wanted to go home.

“Chima gave me a glass of Hennessey mixed with Coca - Cola to drink and that was the only drink I had at the club before dropping Chima off at the hotel .
“When I went into the reception area , I found a mutual friend of ours called Folusho ; he was pretty drunk . Being the person that I am , I decided not to let him stay in the reception area . I helped him and took him to Chima ’s room .
“I knocked on the door and I did not hear anyone answer; I opened the door because the door was bad. I got my friend inside the room and put him on the bed . After I got him on the bed , I kept on talking to him to make sure that he was okay .
“ While he was lying down, I was watching a movie on my phone and from that moment, I do not recollect anything because I passed out .
“My next recollection after passing out was being in a state that I wasn’t in ordinarily . I felt drunk ; but I knew I was not because I did not drink enough to make me drunk . I felt weak and I could feel hands grabbing me . I could also hear a voice in the room , which I knew to be Chima ’s. I felt Segun on top of me having sex with me .
“I felt Segun’ s dreadlocks on my body . I remember trying to push him off as he was touching me . He was touching my breasts and I could feel another pair of hands on my thighs .
“I blacked out and came up again a second time . I could feel somebody fingering me . I knew I heard Chima ’s voice but I couldn ’ t recall what he was saying . I felt myself being penetrated again . I tried my best to say no .
“I believe it was Chima who penetrated me again because I heard him asking if I was awake after all of that ; I blacked out again . At that point, I knew both of them had had sex with me .
“I could feel my private parts sore; I knew that a sexual act had happened . When I woke up , Chima was in the room with me ; he was sitting on a chair opposite the bed . He was on his phone .
“I asked him what happened the previous night and he said nothing . I asked the second time and he said nothing happened . I asked him straight if we had sex last night and he said no ; I told him that if we didn ’t , why then were my pants not on and he kept quiet .
“I was thinking that this was my friend , he would not do that to me . I finally found my underwear under the duvet. I grabbed it, grabbed my wig and car keys and went downstairs . ”
