The incident was reported to have happened in the Ihuaje community in Ahoada East Local Government Area of the state.
He was arrested by men of a local security guard known as ONELGA Security Planning and Advisory Committee’, led by its Commander code-named OSPAC following receipt of a distress call in the area.
Confirming the incident to the press, Dennis Otobo, a member of Against Child S3xual and Gender-Based Violence, an human rights group said;
In the course of my investigation, I got to know that one Pastor Lucky (surname withheld), who is also the proprietor of a group of schools (private) in Ihuaje community in Ahoada East, has been having s3xual affairs with a 10-year-old girl in his care,”
“This got to the knowledge of the parents. When the parents visited her on that Saturday at the Pastor’s house, the girl now informed them of what she had been going through. That anytime he had affairs with her, he would give her N500 to keep quiet.
“Her parents immediately took the girl to the hospital, where they did a preliminary investigation.
“On that level, I decided to call the Divisional Police Officer for assistance and arrest. It was in the evening that the DPO told me that they should come on Sunday and that he was going to handle the case professionally. Truly, he did that because, as we are talking, the man (pastor) is in Ahoada Police station, Ahoada East.”
Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the state police command, Grace Iringe-Koko said;
“Yes, I can confirm his arrest. The Pastor is with us here in the Command. We received a complaint from the parents of the girl, and our men, working with a local vigilante there arrested him. Investigations are ongoing,” the PPRO said.
