I said when you come back from school, you will not meet me, you should go to my grandmother’s house.
“So, after our fasting and prayer, I came back and decided to check whether she had come back from school.
“She called me and I said what? Because I wanted to take my evening bath before bathing her, she said her buttock was paining me.
“I demanded to see it and when I opened it, I saw sperm. I enquired to know who did it? She described the brother that had injury on his leg.

My mother told me to go to the police at Ubulu-Uku. I went and I was told to go to the hospital for medical test. She said he was the one,” the woman alleged.When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Edafe Bright, on Saturday, confirmed the arrest of the suspect.He said, “Yes, it is confirmed.”
