A 75-yr-old man, Nurudeen Koleosho has been arrested by
police in Ogun State for raping an 11-year-old Primary 2 pupil that suffers
from autism, who has been leaving with her grandmother since 2015 when her
father died.
Koleosho was said to have ambushed the girl around his farm
in Shomeke community, in the Obafemi Owode area, Ogun State, around 9am on
Monday and forced her into a shed, where he reportedly raped her.
She had gone to play in the farm with her friends on that
day, but was left behind during which Koleosho approached her.
He had reportedly attempted to lure her with N1,050. It was
learnt that she refused to follow the suspect inside after collecting the
money, which made the septuagenarian to resort to force. She cried home and
relayed the incident to her grandmother, Mrs. Bose Adebayo, who followed her to
Koleosho’s house.
He was subsequently arrested by police in Owode division,
where he confessed, while the girl was taken to Owode General Hospital for
medical tests.
The Ogun State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Muyiwa
Adejobi, said the man would be charged with indecent assault.
