"I am Jude, born in a family of three, my parents are among the greatest people in the nation. It's fair to say am also someone now, am a psychologist, I earn and that's thanks to God, my family, and my friends. If I could narrate about my life currently you all would be like am somewhere but I am quite sure you don't want to read about my previous story.

Am a psychologist but I'd like to share my story to every youth outside there and to every rapist who went unnoticed. Here is my story. When I was in form one young, tender, and beautiful girl like how I am today. Before, I had scored good marks in my primary exams and I was in a great school. Back to form one, my parents escorted me to high school that's Mr. and Mrs. Bellingham. Well raised took care of my virginity, and there I was a high schooler, of course am a human I thought  I needed to have a boyfriend, and yes I had one, his name was George.

Both our parents knew about the relationship and they were supportive. During the Christmas holidays, I left home for a walk, oh my God a nightmare was awaiting me. I walked slowly to the edge of the tea zones around our home. I was happy speaking to myself, but things turned dark. On the edge of the tea zone, there came a man who was our neighbor, he turned to face me. I greeted him politely, 'Hello Mr. Brinson.' He smiled at me. He then moved close to me he held me tight. ' Today have found you, young beautiful as you are, I want to taste what stuff are you made of, I heard you saying you're a virgin.' Terrified I was, tears rolling from my eyes, my legs frizzing, my hands had slept, and my stomach ops. He jumped at me. Squeezed my legs apart kissing my lips moving his hand in my blossoming breast, his hands rough and ugly pulling out my clothes, I had no option he raped me and my virgin life flew away from me in an ugly manner.

I fainted after the action, and when I came back to my new world I saw his ugly face again this time warning me. ' If I ever hear you tell your parents what has happened I'll do it again and kill you.' He then left, I was feeling pain and it was tough for me to walk, not so long after, my friend Ivy passed by and saw me. Blood was all over my legs and on my new linen dress my dad  bought me from Venezuela. ' hey what's up Jude, what has happened to you friend?' I looked at her my eyes swollen out my blue eyes were now red. Ivy's eyes turned into a seasonal river. She couldn't handle it. She knew  I was in great pain. ' Ivy it's gone.' I was pointing at my private part meaning my virginity had been lost. She looked at me, then in a cold voice.  ' Jude, who did this to you?' I struggled to put my finger which was now resurrecting to my mouth to ask for her silence.

She then struggled and took me to their place. My parents and her parents had left home for a business trip. They nursed me well there and full of anxiety I didn't mention a word until later when I loosened my heart and told  Ivy what happened. We all agreed to shut our mouths till the right time to strike back. I never told George a word about my situation. We then backed to school after a month, I didn't help myself, vomiting welcomed itself into my life and you all know what that meant. I was pregnant. My parents are hostile and I found it hard to share with them what had transpired. Ivy promised to be always by my side. The school matron noticed and she alarmed the school principal, madam Bensoud about it.

So during the Monday assembly when Madam Bensoud started her speech, she was breathing fire, I was among the best students in school but now am at the edge of losing the position to be there  'Ladies or should I call you girls? I told you to take care of yourselves during the holidays, but some of you chose to give in to sex life, and now one of our bright students will have to leave the school. Where is Jude?' I walked to the place where she was every student was laughing apart from Ivy. Ivy came from the middle of the peals of laughter, took the microphone from the principal and she began. ' laugh all you can for you have not encountered what Jude is going through. I know I'll be suspended but I'll leave the school if Jude leaves. Madam principal put the image of Jude as your daughter, will you have her sent away? Second, she can not stay with all the waves of laughter the students are making so every time before making a decision ask and investigate.'

Was she for real? everyone was silent the principal was silent, Ivy hugged me and whispered. ' Me and you till death.' What a friend she is, the principal then dismissed the assembly. 'Let's go to class.' Both our parents were notified to visit the school. The principal explained everything to them that I was to leave the school and Ivy to stay back, Ivy gained courage and said, ' Where Jude goes I go. You don't know the story yet. Dad, mum I'll go where Jude goes.'  We took off left the school and dropped at our place Ivy narrated the story but didn't mention who raped me. It was our plan not to do so.

Gorge found out that I was pregnant he came wanting to find out if the whole story was true. When he came he saw my belly and his green eyes were fading with tears. I was afraid thinking I'd lose the lover of my life, but I decided to open up and let him know the whole truth, after listening he hugged me, and Ivy from nowhere hugged me too. He promised never to leave my side no matter what happened. I smiled from the inn.

Days passed, months passed and here he was young Harvey was born. His mother only fourteen has a son. The handsome boy had a gourd father George, Ivy and my parents at my side. I was back in school again with Ivy my full-time friend. Did our examinations and we succeed to pass, now reports came in that Brinson raped a young primary girl her name was Esther. That man was a devil himself. After the stories were known the girl went missing. Later on, the body of the missing girl was found. Mr. Brinson was the biggest suspect however, the case was disclosed.

I wondered for how long Mr. Brinson kept harming young tender ladies from our community. It was not yet time to yell, I finished my form four exams joined a higher institution level of education, and did a course on Psychology.  During this time my handsome son Harvey had started school, and thanks to George, Harvey grew up knowing George was his Biological parent till recently when I opened up to him. He cried and felt for me, but I loved how he took the story it didn't shame him that he's a product of rape, Harvey did well and he grew up well in behavior, no single spot of Mr. Brinson's character in my boy.

Harvey then went on and did his campus exams, passed, and then was employed as a journalist in one of the media houses in town. My son told me 'Mum do you remember C.R.E classes?' I was not getting what he meant I told him, 'But I did Physics son', 'But you can remember Jeremiah from the Bible right, mum?' He further explained and I remembered Ivy who's now a journalist in the same media company as my son, was revising one day, 'Yes I do now son' 'I think the fruits are ready. ' In my mind, I was asking myself what fruit was ready, and then I remembered Jeremiah's vision. I tried to warn my son but he said to me coldly. 'Mr. Brinson will regret why I came to this world.'

Harvey together with Ivy started an investigative documentary, they walked in the whole community, finding the affected families that the ugly warthog Mr. Brinson had harmed. They started from Sir Bobby's house, her daughter Jacque was raped some years back, and he started narrating. 'My daughter Jacque was raped when she was young only 13 years old. Jacque was brilliant in class and a good girl. Harvey then asked, ' Sir Bobby you mean your daughter passed away?' Yes, my son my daughter passed on, I tried talking to her advising her to hold on. I tried this for three years, my son and daughters, One day as I came home from work I found a beautiful present gift placed on that table at the entrance, colorful of course with pink color my daughter's favorite color, I thought my daughter had now won the depression battle. I opened the box and this is what I found.
To my lovely father, Sir Bobby

Dad I tried to handle the pain I felt from what that witch did to me three years ago, through your advice Dad, I tried every day but I couldn't hide the pain I have for that man. Dad I was raped by that former neighbor of ours Mr. Brinson your friend, he seduced me, and threatened me and since then have never found a reason to live. Dad am very sorry but I can't hold it anymore. Much love Daddy.
                                                   Your daughter, Jacque.

When I was trying to find her, I heard a gunshot upstairs, my daughter took her life. She was already tired of carrying a burden in her life. ' Sorry sir Bobby.' we all said. I tried finding Mr. Brinson but he had already left and gave me a warning through a letter.
         To sir Bobby Clark
If you try to find me, I'll look for your other daughter do the same thing and I'll also take your life am not alone in doing this, if you want your all family to vanish try me. GOODBYE.
                                           Mr. Brinson.

That was a clear warning and threat, Mr. Brinson was a police of high rating you all know what it means by that and now he's running for the presidency, I'm just imagining a country being ruled by a rapist and a murderer.' Harvey then said, 'Sir Bobby Clark, don't you worry my mother was also raped by that witch and I am the product, but believe me you, I won't stop until we bring this man down, he'll not run for the presidency, if we unite ourselves and fight him.'

I wondered what was in my son's mind and Ivy, all this time George was an intelligence security in Mr. Brinson's camp, and that's why it wasn't hard to get the neck of Mr. Brinson the so-called cabinet secretary of interior who is now set to run for the presidency.

Harvey then moved to the next family that received the case, It was Jamie's family. 'Hello Mr. Jamie, am Harvey Bellingham, from the Rop media towers Needed some information, I'm taking a documentary on the families affected by Mr. Brinson.' Mr. Jamie looked worried and used his signs to tell Harvey to get in, then he started, 'Harvey, you're young, why don't you just let this story be? Mr. Brinson is a murderer, he'll kill you, my son,' while he was still explaining to Harvey someone from range shot him dead, My son Harvey didn't believe it, what was Jamie having that he was shot dead?

That day George and Mildred passed by and tried to caution Harvey, and Ivy to stop the investigations but Harvey said, 'They killed a man, I can't stop because there is a shade of blood, let it be. I swore I'd bring him down.' It was getting ugly but Harvey was determined,

Harvey then picked up his phone and phoned his friend Curtis, ' Hey Curtis, you won't believe it one of the guys I went for documentaries has been murdered, he was about to say something and his life was cut short, Curtis, please get the information and let's put this thing beyond bars for your mother and my mum.' I heard about your mum and my mum. So I quickly asked what happened to Curtis's mom. Harvey started playing a video they had recorded with Curtis.

'Hey guys my name is Curtis, I'm from the Jones family that's my mother's family I don't recognize my dad because he's a piece of trash, why do I say so? My mum was assaulted and cheated and finally raped by Mr. Brinson, My mom Jane Jones, told me the whole story. Mr. Brinson told her, he won't raise me and if he finds out she told anyone that he had raped her she'd be dead. My mom full of fear was silenced by Mr. Brinson she raised me by herself. What I want to tell Mr. Brinson is one thing I together with my brother Harvey will bring you down. Your products will bring you down.'

I shed tears after I realized Harvey and Curtis were sharing the same blood and the same storyline, however, I thanked God that both of them were raised well. I invited Curtis, and his mom and we had super together, but Curtis never wanted his family to be seen around him because it was dangerous as perhaps they were in a lion's den back at work.

George on the other hand kept cameras all over the office of Mr. Brinson to watch his moves. George found the accomplices of Mr. Brinson and one by one they were abducted and hidden away from their master's space. Just after a long beautiful chat of hammers and nails, they agreed to confess to Mr. Brinson's ugly behavior. It wasn't yet full evidence to send Mr. Brinson to jail. It's fair enough to say Mr. Brinson had money and money had him. He could lure people with money and come during his political events, Curtis, Mildred, Ivy, and Harvey said they'll ruin his last political campaign through our release of the evidence and our encounters.

That evening Mr. Brinson called Mildred and told her he needed a press briefing, when the time was right for briefing believe me not Harvey was there and the now incoming president with a 65% winning rate, was briefing the nation. He then started,

" Good evening citizens, love flows with you, I Mr. Brinson want to thank you for your support till today, soon we will be having our last campaign and it'll send me right to the state house. Any questions from the journalists?"
Then Harvey raised his hands, Mr. Brinson wondered if this was not Curtis, sending his eyes inside his office he saw, 'Curtis who's this then?' the question in his thoughts Then he finally opened his mouth, 'Yes please' "My name is Harvey from Rop media towers, Mr. Brinson, thank God you've mentioned about the flow of love, what is your say about women who face rape allegations and assault." The other media personnel were murmuring waiting for the answer and the so-called incoming president had nothing to say turned and said that's enough for today.

He was fumed, 'I want you to find that journalist,(Mildred) and you Curtis is not that your brother ?' Curtis nodded his head. Then Mildred said, 'You can't do anything to him you'll bring suspicions and you'll be the prime suspect Mr. Brinson.' He then shouted, ' Mr. President, not Mr. Brinson. Order that station to be shut down. George tomorrow during the last campaign I don't want errors, I want security to be tightened, with few chances of error do you understand, now I know my votes have declined by 5% who knows tomorrow, no errors, let's meet tomorrow."

Rop media towers were shut down but Harvey and the media company knew the possibility of that happening and that's why they had also Rop media TV, it was to be the end of him that day no room to spare, preparations were made, computer gurus were employed to hack every TV stations in the country to air one event and also the events huge screen, now the D-day arrives and the venue was set, and the incoming president or he call himself Mr. President took his seat, and everyone was ready for the campaign. Then boom, Harvey in all TV stations,

' Hello Mr. Brinson, enjoy as it lasts, this is for Mr. Jamie you killed recently, for Sir Bobby Clark, for my mom Jude, for my brother Curtis' mom Jane Jones, rapists have no right to vie for presidency they corrupt morally. Mom and Jane, please come on, ' My name is Jane Jones am a victim of Mr. Brinson he assaulted me and raped me, and threw me as a rotten piece of potato, now the product, you gave me together with Jude Bellingham is bringing you down, you employed your son as your attorney without your knowledge, you employed George, you employed my sister Mildred all to bring you down in this epic able day. How do you feel Mr. Brinson all the world knows you're a rapist and a Moran. Please Sir Bobby Clark speak.'

'Mr. Brinson no more threats from you, but that won't bring my daughter Jacque back to life. You raped my 13 years old daughter and later after three years, she took her life because she couldn't withstand your action. You threatened to do the same thing to my other daughter and take my life, and now you want to become the president of this nation, that's not going to happen, the blood of my daughter, the blood of Mr. Jamie, and the bloodshed when you ripped off younger girls skirt won't allow that to happen, never will it Mr. So called incoming president. Thanks to my sons and daughters you're going nowhere. '

Next, ' My name is Toby,' Mr. Brinson was surprised, his mouth opened swallowing the flies passing around him, how smart were they? How did they get Toby my right-hand man is also testifying he tried to interrupt but security was tight. He continued, ' I've worked for Mr. Brinson for more than thirty years I've killed, have been forced to rape, Mr. Brinson is a murderer, he once told me if I won't do it my all family will be buried alive, I had no other choice but to do those ugly acts, every time at night I remember those blood, and I am ready to pay for it.'

'I don't want to continue with more, capture this guy and take him to jail he has no attorney, and if he'll get one, more evidence is with us he should be taken seriously this is more than the Shakahola massacre."
After that, the other presidential competitor came thanking us, however, Harvey and Jones said to them that it was only justice not political, they made sure that was dealt with and they opened up a center where rape cases and the victims will be handled.  Finally, justice had been done Mr. Brinson was hanged. So guys from today If you face these challenges say no to rape report it immediately, no room for assault love forever, thank you for listening."
