Day 35 of #JusticeForOchanya 💔
This is day 35 of our fight for justice.
Ochanya Ogbanje was a 13-year-old girl from Benue State. She died in October 2018 from a very painful sickness called vesicovaginal fistula. It was caused by repeated rape by her uncle Andrew Ogbuja (a lecturer) and his son Victor. The abuse started when she was only 8 years old. She was sent to live with them so she could go to school.
In 2022, a court in Benue State freed Andrew Ogbuja. His wife was found guilty only of failing to protect the child. Victor ran away and is still hiding. The police have not worked hard enough to catch him.
We cannot stay quiet. Nigerian girls keep suffering because of cases like this.
@BenuePoliceNG, @benuestategovt and @PoliceNG, please arrest Victor Ogbuja now. Re-open the case and give Ochanya real justice.
To every parent and every girl child: family should be safe. We must protect our children.
We are not tired.
We are not forgetting.
We are not stopping.
Rest in peace, Ochanya. Your story still pushes us forward. 🙏

Day 34 of #JusticeForOchanya 💔
Another day. Another reminder that we refuse to let Ochanya’s story fade into silence.
This 13-year-old girl from Benue State was sent to live with “family” for schooling and safety. Instead, from the age of 8, she was repeatedly raped by her uncle Andrew Ogbuja and his son Victor Ogbuja.
The years of abuse left her with vesicovaginal fistula (VVF). She suffered in silence, smiled through the pain, and eventually died in October 2018.
Andrew was acquitted by the court in 2022.
Victor remains a fugitive walking free, no sustained manhunt, no fresh wanted notice, no real pressure from the authorities even years later.
The continued silence from @BenuePoliceNG, @benuestategovt, and @PoliceNG is complicity that protects the guilty while Nigerian girls keep paying with their lives.
We demand:
Arrest Victor Ogbuja NOW.
Re-open the full case.
Deliver real justice and systemic change.
Ochanya, your blood still cries out from the ground. We will not rest until justice is served. Every single day we show up for you. Rest in power, beautiful angel. The fight continues.
We are not tired.
We are not forgetting.
We are not stopping. 🙏
To every parent trusting “family” with their daughter’s future — this fight is for you too.
To every girl child still at risk — we see you.

Day 33 of #JusticeForOchanya.
It keeps the fire burning for justice over the brutal 2018 death of 13-year-old Ochanya Ogbanje from Benue State.
She lost her life to vesicovaginal fistula (VVF) after years of repeated rape that started when she was only 8 years old all while she was sent to live with relatives for what was supposed to be “schooling and safety.”
The monsters responsible: her uncle, Andrew Ogbuja (a lecturer acquitted by a Benue court in 2022), and his son Victor Ogbuja (still a fugitive on the run, with no visible manhunt or fresh wanted notice from the authorities even years later).
The continued deafening silence from @BenuePoliceNG, @benuestategovt, and @PoliceNG, labeling it as complicity that protects the guilty.
We demands the immediate arrest of Victor Ogbuja, the full reopening of the case, and genuine systemic change to protect Nigerian girls from family betrayals like this one.
“Ochanya, your blood still cries out from the ground. We will not rest until justice is served. Every single day we show up for you. Rest in power, beautiful angel. The fight continues.”
We are not tired.
We are not forgetting.
We are not stopping. 💔🙏

Day 33 of demanding #JusticeForOchanya 💔
Another morning. Another day we refuse to let the system bury Ochanya’s story.
This 13-year-old girl from Benue was sent to live with relatives for “schooling and safety.” Instead, from age 8, she was repeatedly raped by her uncle Andrew Ogbuja and his son Victor Ogbuja. The horror left her with vesicovaginal fistula (VVF). She smiled through the pain until it killed her in October 2018.
Andrew walked free after acquittal.
Victor is still a free man, a fugitive for years with no real manhunt, no fresh wanted notice, no urgency from the authorities.
The silence from @BenuePoliceNG, @benuestategovt and @PoliceNG is not neutral. It protects the guilty.
To every parent trusting “family” with their daughter: this fight is for your child too.
To every girl still at risk: we see you and we will not stop.
We are not tired.
We are not forgetting.
We are not stopping until Victor Ogbuja is arrested and the full case is reopened.
Ochanya, your blood still cries out. We carry this fight for you every single day. Rest in power, sweet angel. Justice must come. 🙏

Day 27 of justice for Ochanya 💔
Our hearts still ache for that little girl who just wanted to go to school.
From age 8, the people she trusted stole her childhood, her body, and finally her life.
Victor Ogbuja is still out there, free for over seven years. The fact that this rapist Victor Ogbuja is always smiling in his pictures is crazy and annoying 😤😤 while we remember every single day.
We won’t forget you, Ochanya. We won’t let your pain fade away.
A nationwide manhunt for Victor Ogbuja now. Her story deserves answers. Her name deserves justice.
Nigerians, let’s keep her light alive.

Day 23 Justice for Ochanya Ogbanje
My heart is heavy today…
See how silent the timeline has become just because Winifred didn’t tweet?
We have all quietly forgotten about justice for Ochanya. But the second Winifred posts again, the anger will rush back and we’ll pile on her without mercy.
I know she stood as a witness… but my God, what if she is also a broken victim of her own father and brother? What pain has she carried in silence all these years?
We are all slowly moving on like this precious 13-year-old girl’s life never mattered… like the years of horror she endured from age 8 never happened… like her painful death from repeated rape means nothing now. 🥲🥲
In whatever you do in this life, please… don’t let them kill you. Don’t die silently and unknown.
Victor Ogbuja is still walking free after over 7 years. Andrew Ogbuja was acquitted.
A little girl’s body and soul were destroyed… and we’re letting it fade away.
This case is NOT over. Not in out heart. Not while her killers breathe free.
@PoliceNG@BenuePoliceNG@officialABAT@BenueStateGov@MinofInteriorNG @NigerianBarAssoc
Nationwide manhunt for Victor Ogbuja NOW!
#JusticeForOchanya #EndRapeCulture
Day 20 of standing for Ochanya Ogbanje.
My chest isn’t just tight today… it’s shattering into a million pieces.
Ochanya was only 13. She left her mother’s arms full of dreams, just wanting to go to school. Instead, the people she trusted turned her tiny body into years of torture.
Vesicovaginal fistula stole her childhood, her smile, her future… and in 2018 it took her life.
Her uncle walked free in 2022. But her cousin, Victor Ogbuja, the one who helped destroy her has been a ghost for over seven years.
No fresh wanted poster.
No nationwide manhunt.
No honest word from the people sworn to protect us. Just… nothing.
And now, the pain multiplies. In Ijebu Ode, a 7-year-old baby girl was brutally raped. Her innocence ripped away in the most evil way. But instead of justice rushing in, the rapist’s family is threatening her mother, bullying her into silence, terrorizing her for daring to speak up.
A child is broken, a mother is living in fear… and the system watches? How many more tiny coffins and broken mothers will it take before we say ENOUGH?! 😭💔
@benuestategovt@BenuePoliceNG@PoliceNG@benuestategov@OgunStateGov@ogunpolice@PoliceNG@aleeygiwa sir while you’re busy on the timeline doing questions and answers our babies are being violated and their mothers are being hunted down for justice.
There are more pressing issues at hand! Real children. Real blood. Real terror. Stop the show. Start the manhunt. Do your job!
To every soul still standing with me liking, reposting, tagging, crying in the comments, refusing to let these names die thank you.
Today we beg louder than yesterday, on our knees with every mother in Nigeria: • A public update on Victor Ogbuja’s manhunt RIGHT NOW • His face plastered as WANTED on every police station wall and every screen in this country • Immediate protection for that 7-year-old in Ijebu Ode and her mother arrest the threats, not the victims • Real, urgent protection for every girl child so no daughter ever suffers Ochanya’s fate… or this new baby’s nightmare… again
This fight isn’t about one little girl anymore. It’s about every Nigerian child who deserves to believe justice can still cry louder than power and threats.
I will keep showing up, day after day, even when my voice shakes and my eyes burn with tears I can’t stop.
Because Ochanya never got to grow old. She never got to heal. She never got to see tomorrow. And that 7-year-old angel in Ijebu Ode is still fighting to be heard through the fear.

Day 18 of standing for Ochanya Ogbanje.
My heart feels heavy today. Thinking about a little girl who smiled through unimaginable suffering just so she could go to school. Her story isn’t just tragic, it’s a mirror showing how our system fails the most vulnerable.
To everyone reading this: thank you for the likes, reposts, and tags. Your support keeps her name alive. But we need more than online noise now. We need action.
Benue Police, please respond. Release an official update. Hunt down the fugitive. Give Ochanya’s family and every mother in Nigeria a reason to believe justice still exists.
We are many. Our voices together are loud. Let’s not stop until something changes.
Ochanya, we remember you. We fight for you. Sleep well, beautiful soul.

Day 17 of demanding #JusticeForOchanya
Another sunrise, another day we refuse to let Ochanya’s story fade into silence.
This 13-year-old girl was sent away from home with hope, hope for education, a better future, and safety in the arms of “family.” Instead, she endured years of unimaginable abuse that shattered her body, left her with vesicovaginal fistula (VVF), and eventually took her life in October 2018.
Her uncle Andrew Ogbuja was acquitted. Her cousin Victor Ogbuja has been a fugitive for over seven years now, with reports he has been living openly in Lagos. Yet there is still no sustained public manhunt, no fresh wanted notice, and no clear update from the authorities.
The silence from @BenuePoliceNG and @benuestategovt is deafening. Every day it continues is another day we tell Nigerian parents that sending their daughters to relatives for schooling comes with unbearable risk.
To everyone still liking, reposting, tagging, and sharing, thank you. Your voices are keeping her name alive when the system wants us to forget. But likes alone won’t arrest a fugitive or reopen this case. We need:
- An official public update from the Benue State Police on the manhunt for Victor Ogbuja
- A visible, sustained search with his face widely circulated as wanted
- Real accountability that protects every girl child trusted to “family” for education
This fight isn’t just for Ochanya anymore. It’s for every daughter, every sister, every future that could be stolen the same way.
We won’t stop posting. We won’t stop tagging. We won’t let her pain become another forgotten headline.
Ochanya, your light still shines through us. Rest in power, sweet soul. Justice must come. 💔🙏

Day 14 of demanding justice for Ochanya
I’ve been posting every day, and the silence from @BenuePoliceNG hurts more than words can say. It feels like they’re hoping we’ll get tired and move on. But how can we?
Ochanya was just a child. A daughter. A dreamer sent to live with family for a better future. Instead, she suffered hell for years until VVF took her life at 13. Her uncle walks free after acquittal. Her cousin Victor is still nowhere to be found.
This isn’t just a case, it’s a wound on every girl child in Nigeria. If we don’t fight for her, who will fight for the next one?
Please, Benue State Government and Nigeria Police, break this painful silence. Issue a statement. Declare him wanted. Show us you care about our daughters.
Tag everyone who can help. Don’t let Ochanya’s light fade.
Rest peacefully, angel 💔

Day 12 of calling on the Benue Police Command.
At this point, I think they are seeing our tags and ignoring them, or they don’t have data on the official police phone.
Did they sell the phone?
@PoliceNG is not even responding or reacting on their behalf.
Even if only to lie to us and let things calm down.
I hope Ochanya’s spirit deals with them 😢
Is the Benue State Police trying to let this case die down again?
Why are they not responding, releasing an official statement, or putting up wanted posters for these criminals?
Let’s not stop asking for justice 🙏🙏
RIP Ochanya
