Tayo Adeleke

A 29-year-old man identified as Tayo Adeleke has been arrested by the Ogun state police command for allegedly defiling the 13-year-old daughter of his benefactor.

The suspect was caught in the act inside the room of the minor’s mother in Monico area of Ogijo, Ogun State on October 9, 2023. The minor's mother had returned late from work when she noticed that the light in her apartment had been switched off. The lady who felt it was odd, turned on the light and saw the suspect defiling the minor.

Tayo who recently completed his NYSC, was accommodated by the family of the minor before being nabbed in the heinous act. A family source told Punch;

“The family has been the most accommodating since his youth service programme. They fed him and were even thinking of getting him a job after his NYSC. He betrayed everyone.”  

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, who confirmed the incident, said the case would be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Eleweran, Abeokuta, once the preliminary investigation was completed.

Odutola said;

“The suspect has been arrested after the incident was reported by the mother of the victim.”
