Officers from the Ogun State Police Command have arrested a 44-year-old alleged paedophile, Damilola Otegba.

Otegba, a security guard at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, left his post at night to engage in unlawful activities with a six-year-old girl inside a university building.

In an X post on Thursday, the command shared a news report, highlighting that the suspect, who attempted a sexual assault on the girl, would have succeeded had it not been for the timely intervention of a female student before he was apprehended.
