The suspect, Peter Nweke, was nabbed while committing the crime at his residence, situated at Willy Bright Street, Abusoro, in Akure South Local Government of the state.

Nweke’s arrest was made possible by the community’s coordinated efforts, according to Daniel Aidamenbor, the NSCDC’s public relations officer.

While parading the suspect at the state headquarters of the corps, Aidamenbor disclosed that residents of the area had for a while observed Nweke and the teenage victim before apprehending him.

Aidamenbor stated that the offence contravened Section 31(1)(2) of the Ondo State Child’s Right Law 2007 and Section 3(1)(a)(b)(c) of the Ondo State Violence Against Persons Prohibition Law 2021.

The Ondo NSCDC spokesman stated that they will charge the suspect in court after completing the investigation.
