“A s3xual intercourse with either a boy or a girl under the age of 13 years is defilement, and the punishment if found guilty is life imprisonment. Section 218 CC.

In fact, any parent who tries to cover defilement could be charged to court for aiding and abetting.”
According to the Nigerian Criminal Code, the law specifies that any person who unlawfully engages in carnal knowledge of a child under 13 years old is guilty of a felony and would face life imprisonment, with or without caning.
