A 25 year old mechanic, Idris Oke, was on Monday arraigned before a Magistrate’s Court, for deceiving his girlfriend to take abortion pills that have landed her in critical condition at the hospital.
In the matter before Chief Magistrate Okeagu Azubike in Abuja, Idris was charged with conspiracy and aborting the pregnancy of his girlfriend, Miss Janet Onah. The police prosecutor, Philips Akogwu, told the court that Miss Janet, a resident of Kuruduma village, Abuja, reported the case at Asokoro Police Station on February 21.
According to court document, the accused and a pharmacist deceitfully administered some drugs to Miss Janet which led to her miscarriage on February 18. “The pharmacist administered some drugs to her on the pretence that it would make her sleep,” Mr. Akogwu said.
The police prosecutor informed the court that Onah had since been on admission at the National Hospital, Abuja, due to the effect of the drugs.
He told the court that the offence contravened sections 79 and 232 of the Penal Code.
On his part, Idris pleaded not guilty. He admitted that he took Miss Janet to a pharmacist but added that it was done with her consent.
“She was the person who begged me to take her to the pharmacist to get some drugs that would abort the pregnancy because she is a student and did not want the pregnancy to hinder her studies,” he argued.
Following his plea, the chief magistrate granted him bail in the sum of N250,000 with two sureties in like sum. He then adjourned the case to March 26 for hearing.

@ DX – if you have a netter alternative, by all means feel free to present your ideas. I always focus on the reality, NOT ideals.
The fact is: whilst you and I debate on this issue, there are a few African women out there undergoing an un-safe, backstreet abortion – some will survive, others will not.
To preach abstinence amidst the deaths of our women is un-realistic. Unexpected pregnancies will always happen, including amongst married women on contraception

@janet C The issue behide the matter is not to kill ennocent souls,these souls are not the cause of any pregnancy in any way it may come, but the truth of the matter is that when a man and woman meet the end result is pregnance, people should not just enjoy sex but should also understand and accept the out come the Bible says who ever kills is brother or friend with the sword will die of a sword as well that is the same as man slaughter. on this issue my sister there is no any alternative way of doing it.
To preach abstinence is to inform the ladies and men to take full resposiblity of the pregnance or out come of sex, abortion is not a solution however,it may be seem as imediete solution but it as indefinate conscuonce.

Janet C is it right to collect a wrong by commiting another wrong? If one is a christian there is no such thing as safe abortion life is about choices and choices have consequences why kill a child bcoz of ones wrong choice? Abortion is murder life is precious there would never be a legal way to kill, may there should be a law to allow your parents to kill you at will

@ Dee&janet c let’s face realities. Yes a lot of unsafe abortions do happen and women die,but that does not justify safe abortions coz they are still wrong. Unsafe abortions would lead to 2 deaths, safe abortions 1 and not aborting none.so that the better alternative for you janet c. A life is a life.I agree with Phiria.

@Dee & janet C abortion is sin what we are discouraging is people to sin there is no miner or small sin all sins are the same and the end result will be the same, think twice if u practice what u call safe abortion to rescue the offender the mother and Kill the ennoncent soul are you trying to be fare?
When we talk of abstinence we mean people to stop sinning what causes people to abort is the spirit of the devel which is filled in them. Abortion is the act of the deavel.Why should educated people who know the word of God be come lawyers of the deavel?

@ DX and Truth – i rest my case. But if you are ever in the unfortunate position where your daughter aged 13 gets raped and falls pregnant, let me know what you decide to do! Or if the devil overtakes you and YOU make a minor pregnant, or you make your mistresses pregnant, let us know what you decide to do!

Janet C is a liberal and her comments are almost always in that line. No need to insult her. I do not usually support her comments though, which makes me a conservative (as are a number of bloggers on this site). That is the richness of diversity.

Both the man and the woman are fools. they knew that live sex results in pregnance and because they did not plan for that, they decide to abort illegally. Now the innocent soul was destroyed. Before we indulge in unprotected sex with our spouses lets think of the consequences.

Abortion in the case before us wereby the lady is tricked is very wrong. I personally do not support abortion except in the context of medical reasons to save life. Supporting abortion icinampofu like ba Janet C is dangerous. We’r no angels, even if abortion is committed by me it is still wrong!
