The 49-year-old Nigerian man identified as Ubong Williams Akpan is reportedly in the grips of the country’s Ogun State Police following his arrest on Friday, April 2.
The victim filed a complaint against him at Itele Ota divisional headquarters that he had been abusing her sexually since when she was seven years old.
According to her, she simply could not take the abuse any longer, hence the decision to complain to the police.
The Divisional Police Officer of the Itele Ota division detailed his detectives to the scene where the suspect was promptly arrested, Saharareporters.com reported.
