The Nigerian Police have caught a man named Ojochogwu Baba. He is in trouble because he hurt a young girl who is just 10 years old. This happened in a place called Kogi State.
Baba is 49 years old and he works for the government. The police found him at a place called Wada Estate, which is near a big town called Lokoja.
A police officer, named SP William Ovye Aya, told a newspaper about catching Baba. This was in an interview on Wednesday.
People said that Baba asked the young girl to get him some drinks and a cigarette. After she did this, he did something very bad to her.
A man named Pastor Idris Abubakar, who also has a disability, told us that what Baba did is making life hard for people who also have disabilities. Parents are now afraid to send their kids on errands because they are worried bad things might happen.
Pastor Abubakar lives in the same area as Baba. He said, “I’m a landlord here, just like Baba. Nothing like this ever happened in our neighborhood before.”
People living nearby want the police to make sure Baba is punished for what he did.
A lawyer named Barrister Lilian Ajuma Okolo, who helps women and children, said she is very upset by what happened. She told the newspaper, “This is disturbing, especially since it happened to a young girl. We worry about her a lot because she is very upset and confused right now. We talk a lot about stopping these bad things, but they keep happening. We need to do something fast to make it stop.”
The police spokesman, SP William Ovye Aya, said they are investigating and after that, Baba will go to court.
