After the third abortion, the suspect did family planning for her so as not to get pregnant any longer.
Having realised that her father is all out to ruin her life, she ran away from the house and reported to an NGO ‘‘Advocacy For Children And Vulnerable Persons Network’’ consequent upon which she was taken to Owode-Egbado police station to complain.
The PPRO, said upon the report, the DPO Owode-Egbado Division, Superintendent of Police (SP) Olabisi Elebute, led her detectives to the pastor’s house where he was arrested.
