Below is an audio and written version of how Princess was raped by Peruzzi in 2012… She shared her experience in the new twitter account @Jayamah22 she opened barely 72hours ago.

“I was young and naive but that was no excuse for him to take advantage of me. I hope this gives fellow rape victims the courage to speak out!” She said.

So one time in 2012, I can’t really remember the date and the month
But I accompanied a friend “Aisha” to 1004.
And as at then, I think she had a thing with Peruzzi, I accompanied her there, we spent a night that day and I happened to stay in the same room with Aisha and Peruzzi

In the night, he started touching me
without my consent, I tried to tell him that that’s wrong and besides
he has a girlfriend lying in between.
So I left the room and went to sleep in the mini parlour upstairs, I had to leave the room because I wasn’t comfortable anymore

I tried tapping my friend to wake up so she’d understand what was going on but she was too fast asleep.
So then I went to the parlour,
and he came out and I had to tell him to leave if not I was going to create a scene.

He obliged and went back to the room and for some time he didn’t come out again.
I left the parlour upstairs and went downstairs to the main parlour
so I could sleep on the chair, I couldn’t sleep in the other rooms cos it was occupied with his other friends he had over. When I was already fast asleep,
thinking he was just making advances and all, me saying “NO” maybe he got the message.
Being deep asleep and I felt someone trying to unbuckle my pants and then I woke up

And I’m like “YOU CAN’T DO THAT IT’S WRONG” that is when we started struggling and he was “PRESSING ON MY NECK”
Telling me I should chill and likes me, all this kind of shit and I’m like
Yo! “I’M NOT INTERESTED”

At that point struggling was very stressful, you know he tore my PANT and then he did what he did, HE RAPED ME.

I was too naive to know that I was meant to go for test, i was too scared of going to the police because as at then my parents didn’t know I was in Lagos so I was scared to come out with the news
and ithe whole story of him raping me.

I’ve kept this inside me for over 8 years now and I finally feel a bit of relief speaking out. I hope my story would encourage more suppressed rape victims to speaker out, no matter the situation you find yourself no one has any right to rape you!

However, Peruzzi had denied the allegation in his recent post.

“In light of recent allegations, accusing me of rape in 2012, I want to say that I, Tobechukwu Victor Okoh, strongly refute such claim. I have never and will never rape or sexually assault anybody.” He wrote.

Below are old tweets of Peruzzi 8 years ago.
