THE Adamawa State Police Command says it has apprehended a 67-year-old man, Mahmud Adamu, over alleged sexual assault of minors, by inserting his fingers into their private parts.
The Police Public Relations Officer of the Command Suleiman Nguroje told reporters that
Mahmud Adamu, a resident of Sabon Layi in Ganye town of Ganye Local Government Area, confessed to the indecorous habit.
According to Suleiman Nguroje, Mahmud Adamu
confessed to having performed the condemnable act on three teenagers on separate occasions in his area.
Nguroje quoted the suspect as recounting how he usually caresses the girls before inserting his fingers in their private parts to satisfy his urges.
The police further quote Mahmud Adamu as saying that he started the act in 2023 whenever his wife travelled out of town.
He said the state Commissioner of Police, CP Babatola Afolabi, has, however, advised parents and guardians to be vigilant with people who demonstrate inexplicable friendship with their children and wards.
