Alex Esther, a 17-year old lady who just gained admission to study Law at Benue State University, has narrated how she set her boyfriend ablaze over forced sex and other issues in their relationship.

In an interview with one John Charles, Esther revealed that she had had three abortions for her boyfriend, Chidinma.

“We had been fighting over some issues. I was a virgin when I met him and he promised never to leave me but to always stand by me.

“Our relationship was really serious to the extent that we had to take a blood oath before I allowed him to deflower me.

“When I got pregnant for him, he gave me an injection in his medicine shop to abort the pregnancy. I got pregnant the second time and he promised that we would keep that one (pregnancy). Then he started misbehaving and would sometimes not even come home while I was pregnant.”

“I got for pregnant for him the third time. We had serious problems to the point that we had even been going to the police station,” she added.

After settling another fight with her boyfriend, Esther disclosed that she was afraid of what her boyfriend might do to her; due to that she bought fuel of N840 should any unexpected assault come from her boyfriend.

 “I decided to go to his house the following day but I was scared that he might harm me. So, I decided to buy some fuel for N840 from a man selling around my house. I also bought matches and went to visit him at night.

“We started chatting in his room and settled (our differences), then we had sex. I actually didn’t feel like having sex with him but he forced me and had his way. After the sex, we both slept off.

“I just cannot say, but later, I went outside and carried the fuel and poured it in the room and then I lit the matches. I ran out naked and went and slept inside a church.

“Reality has dawned on me now and I feel bad about what has happened,” she said.
