Lagos State Police Command have arrested a 73-year old man, Pa Fola Olowoigbo who allegedly raped and impregnated a 14-year old girl.

According to the Command, it was investigating a case of defilement reported against 73-year-old Pa Fola Olowoigbo, of No.2 Fela Ahmed street, Agric, Ikorodu, Lagos.

Police Public Relations Officer, Chike Oti said the suspect who hailed from Ago-Iwoye, Ogun state was a local taxi driver and next door neighbour to the child’s mother was alleged to have defiled a 14-year-old female child till she became pregnant.

Oti said the victim was always sent on errands by the suspect, unknown to the mother that he had ulterior motives.

According to Oti, based on these developments, which were rife these days, the Commissioner of Police, Imohimi Edgal warned parents to be wary of whom their children related with so incidences of such nature would not recur.
