Trouble started on Wednesday September 25, 2024, when the minor went to her grandmother’s house after school on the instruction of her mother who went for a fasting and praying programme in her church.

Narrating the incident, the mother said she instructed her daughter that Wednesday to go to her grandmother’s house after school since she would not meet her at home.

The little girl told her mother when she wanted to bath her later in the day that she had some pains on her private part which the mother required to examine.

“I demanded to see it, and when I opened it, I saw sperm. I enquired to know who did it. She said it was that brother that has injury on his leg.

“I felt pained but I didn’t want to ask him. I was laying curses on him, I then went to report to my mother’s brother the following day.

“My mother told me to go to the police at Ubulu-Uku, I went and I was told to go to the hospital for medical test. She said he is the one”, the woman alleged.

Confirming the incident, Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, SP Edafe Bright, said, “Earlier today, we swiftly responded to a complaint of defilement of a 4-year-old child by a 50 years plus old man.

“We first took the child to a Government Hospital where she was examined and the doctor/nurses confirmed that the child has been altered (penetrated).

“We left the hospital and arrested the man and allowed the girl to show us who touched her and she pointed at the man.

“We immediately handed him to the Divisional Police Headquarters Ogwashi Uku where he’s currently detained.”

SP Edafe added that the suspect will be immediately transferred to the Command headquarters after the Division are done with their preliminary investigation.
