DSP Bright Edafe who is the spokesperson of the Delta state police command has reminded Nigerians that having sexual intercourse with a person despite them withdrawing their consent even in the middle of the act can be termed rape and attracts a 14-year jailterm.
Edafe gave the reminder on his Twitter handle this morning. He wrote
”Do you know during sex, once any party withdraws consent, you have to stop. further penetration amounts to rape and the person can be sentenced to life imprisonment if found guilty…… ignorance of law is no excuse”
