She said that the incident happened while she was working the night shift and that Emmanuel was also on duty that night. The nurse said that the accused came up to her as she was going to check out the school's clinic before going to bed and insisted on seeing her later that night.
Imolita says that the defendant knocked on the door of the room around 9 p.m. while she was at her desk, which had a bed next to it. She was hesitant to let him in, but she did after he asked her for Vitamin C. After giving him the medicine, she let him sit down because he told her he had something to say.
During their talk, he told her he loved her, but she told him she was already married and had kids. He then forced himself on her and told her not to scream for help because no one would hear her. Imolita said that she fought back, telling him that he couldn't take advantage of her and that he should go find single girls. The fight went on until he said he was too tired to keep going. Imolita told him to leave because she wasn't a cheap woman.
Imolita said that Emmanuel agreed to leave the room, but then changed his mind and tried to kiss, touch, and take off her pants, which she fought. She said that he pushed her and tried to hold her legs down with his security boots while she begged him not to. She reminded him that she was from Delta, where married women don't date other men, and begged him not to ruin her marriage. She told him that she had a condom in her bag because she wanted to get away. But he wouldn't let her go, so he beat her up.
Imolita told the judge during cross-examination that she had offered to use a condom to get out of the situation. The trial was put on hold until March 22, 2023, and the accused person was locked up in the Ikoyi Custodial Centre.
