Blood in the Bush: Man Butchers 14-Year-Old Girl in Abia Over Rejected Rape Attempt, Police Accused of Extortion

A 14-year-old girl, Felicia Anaba, is in a coma at an undisclosed hospital in Abia State after she was macheted by a 33-year-old man, Chinazum Nwaubani, who allegedly attacked her in the bush for resisting his attempt to rape her.

The horrifying attack occurred in Obete Nchina village, Ntighauzo community, Obingwa Local Government Area, where Felicia and her twin brother had gone to fetch firewood. According to witnesses, the suspect approached the girl, demanded sex, and upon rejection, inflicted deep machete wounds on her head, leg, and arm before fleeing the scene. Her twin brother escaped and raised the alarm, leading villagers to find Felicia unconscious and soaked in blood.

Her father, Mr. Chijioke Anaba, has raised serious allegations against the Eastern Ngwa Police Division, claiming officers there demanded ₦30,000 before registering the case. “My daughter was unconscious and bleeding to death, and the police still wanted money before doing their job,” he said. “They told me the attacker might be mentally unstable — that’s false. He lives among us and is fully aware of his actions.”

The suspect, who is from the same village as the victim, has since been arrested. However, the family fears he may be released under claims of mental illness.

The Abia State Police Command has acknowledged the arrest but strongly denied any bribe demand. Police spokesperson, DSP Maureen Chinaka, said the Command has not received a formal complaint about the extortion and urged anyone with proof to come forward.

She confirmed the suspect attacked the twins, stating: “He ordered the girl to undress, and when she refused, he attacked her with a machete.” Police say investigations are ongoing, and the victim is receiving medical attention.

Mr. Anaba has appealed to the wife of the state governor, Mrs. Priscilla Otti, to intervene and ensure justice is served, warning that his daughter may suffer permanent disability. “This is not just an assault. It was a murder attempt. If nothing is done, this man could strike again.”

The incident has reignited concerns over police corruption and the safety of young girls in rural communities, with residents demanding accountability and swift justice. The public is watching closely to see whether the system will punish a would-be rapist — or protect him.

Dr. Chris Okafor invokes divine retribution upon individuals blackmailing the Grace Nation church

Dr. Chris Okafor invokes divine retribution upon individuals blackmailing the Grace Nation church

… Affirming God’s omnipotence to unveil malicious schemes.

To be frank, the ability of Doris Ogala and her associates to withstand the arduous challenges set by Senior Pastor Dr. Chris Okafor of Grace Nation Global at the culmination of the Harvest of Babies 2026 conference, the church’s flagship event, continues to elude me.

It’s advisable not to offend a powerful spiritual leader like Prophet Chris Okafor to avoid potential consequences, as seen in the situation with Doris Ogala, who was rebuked by the prophet; can she rectify the situation through confession?

Insiders close to the man of God claim that despite relentless online bullying and blackmailing, the Generational Prophet remains resolute, stating that God’s power has been evident throughout the commission’s existence. The reason for this wonderful statement is found in the scriptures, “Upon this rock I shall build my Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” The more falsehoods are spread about the church and its leader, the more God elevates the church and propels him to greater heights, he asserted. He emphasized that blessings and fruitfulness are antidotes to curses, noting that God continues to bestow blessings upon the church, including miracles and the gift of children, which is one reason for the grand finale of the annual family liberation program, The Harvest of Babies.

However, the man of God issued a curse on each person speaking ill of the church, blackmailing, and uttering all sorts of falsehoods against the church, declaring that if they refused to repent within a few days, the earth would swallow them and their family members, stating that they would be of no use to themselves, their families, or society at large.

The spiritual leader cautions his followers to beware of such individuals including Doris Ogala who may taint their faith, and urges them to treat these persons as emissaries of the devil, avoiding them altogether.

Recall that the 2026 harvest of babies concluded with a remarkable birth of a miracle baby boy to a woman on the third day of the conference, accompanied by the dedication of several other miracle babies, all to the glory of God.
