Boy impregnates ten girls within five months

The incident led to his return to his village, where he allegedly went on to impregnate eight more girls.

The Anambra State Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Ify Obinabo, made the development public during a live video on social media on Wednesday.

She described the situation as troubling and said the matter had been brought to her attention by the boy’s mother.

According to Obinabo, the mother expressed fear over the increasing number of girls frequenting their home, reportedly saying, “Anytime I see a girl coming towards our house nowadays, my heart would jump. Please, I need help.”

Obinabo also revealed that the boy explained how he convinced the girls to engage in sexual relationships with him.

“He told me he always says he loves them and would like to marry them when he becomes wealthy,” she said.

Commissioner seeks public advise

The commissioner, while not disclosing the identities or exact location of the individuals involved, noted that the matter had gone beyond the scope of her office and called on the public to offer suggestions on how best to handle the situation.

Obinabo questioned whether the boy’s behavior might have spiritual or psychological roots and emphasized the need for urgent intervention.

The unusual nature of the case has stirred debate online, with many Nigerians calling for counseling, medical evaluation, and community involvement to address the issue.

As of the time of reporting, no official legal steps have been taken, but the Ministry of Women and Social Welfare continues to monitor the situation. The case remains under public watch as the state seeks appropriate ways to manage the growing concern.
