Tiktoker Mirabel: Ogun Vows Justice In Viral Rape Allegation

The Ogun State Government has visited Mirabel, the TikToker at the centre of the viral rape allegation, confirming her admission to a state-owned health facility while vowing to pursue justice and ensure the perpetrator is held accountable.

The State Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Hon. Motunrayo Adijat Adeleye, disclosed this in a statement made available to journalists on Friday, after visiting the survivor at the health facility, in the company of the Ministry’s Permanent Secretary and the facility’s Medical Director.

Adeleye explained that the visit aimed to assess the survivor’s condition and ensure that necessary medical and welfare interventions are being promptly provided.

The statement reads, “Ogun State Government has initiated a coordinated, multi-sectoral response to allegations of sexual assault reported by a social media (TikTok) content creator named Mirabel, confirming that the survivor has been admitted to a State-owned health facility, where she is currently receiving comprehensive medical attention, investigation and psychosocial support, and is responding positively to medical treatment.

“The State Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Hon. Motunrayo Adijat Adeleye, disclosed this shortly after visiting the survivor at the health facility, in the company of the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, and the Medical Director of the facility. She stated that the visit was aimed at assessing the survivor’s condition and ensuring that appropriate medical and welfare interventions were being promptly administered.”

The commissioner praised the Nigeria Police Force, Ogun State Police Command, for its prompt action immediately the case was transferred to the State, and also praised the prompt response of the team in the State-owned medical facility and the State Ministry of Justice.

“This structured approach is intended to protect the survivor’s welfare while guaranteeing that investigations are conducted professionally, thoroughly, and strictly based on verifiable evidence”, Adeleye said.

She added that detailed examinations and all required clinical procedures are being carried out in line with established standards for managing cases of alleged sexual assault, while the security agency is carrying out its investigation simultaneously.

“The welfare, dignity, and safety of every survivor remains our utmost priority. The Prince Dapo Abiodun-led administration maintains a zero-tolerance stance on sexual and gender-based violence, stressing that “while we stand firmly with survivors, we are equally guided by due process. Investigations must be evidence-based, transparent, and fair to all parties involved, even as whosoever is found wanting would be made to face the full wrath of the law.

The Commissioner, while assuring that further updates would be communicated at the appropriate time as credible findings emerge from ongoing investigations, urged members of the public to avoid speculative narratives or sensational commentary capable of undermining due process, while assuring that the State Government would get to the root of the matter to determine the veracity of the claim.
