A man identified as John Peter, a commercial motorcyclist (Okada rider), has been apprehended in Enugwu Agidi, Anambra State, after being caught in a compromising situation with a seven-month pregnant woman.
According to reports, security operatives stormed Peter’s apartment following a tip-off and found him engaging in intimacy with the married woman. During questioning, Peter claimed the woman had contacted him for help, stating she had nothing to eat. He said he initially declined but later invited her over, offering financial assistance in exchange for intercourse—a proposition she reportedly accepted.
However, the situation took a concerning turn when some community members alleged that Peter was HIV-positive. Security operatives took him to a local medical facility in Awka for testing, where a rapid HIV test reportedly confirmed his positive status.
“This is a serious public health concern,” a source stated. “The authorities must act swiftly to assess the potential impact.”
The incident has caused alarm in the community, with residents fearing the possible spread of the virus. They are urging Anambra Health Services to conduct testing on women who may have had relations with Peter in the past.
Peter remains in the custody of the Anambra State Security Service as investigations continue.
