A 75-year-old man, Sunday Muoghalu, has confessed being responsible for the pregnancy of his 13-year-old foster-daughter.

The suspect, a resident of Awka, Anambra State, told journalists that he was only playing with the girl and never intended putting her in the family way.

The suspect was arrested last night by police through the assistance of the Commissioner for Women and Social Welfare, Ify Obinabo.

A video of a 13-year-old girl who was impregnated by her guardian had gone viral on the internet which prompted a swift response from the Commissioner.

The response led to the rescue of the victim, currently in safe custody, as well as arrest of the suspect who would soon be charged to court.

Narrating her ordeal, the victim confessed she was impregnated by the suspect who she said was her guardian.

The victim, a native of Akwa Ibom, said she was not the only one involved in the suspect’s serial defilement of minors.

“Mr Sunday’s wife is known as Madam Ghana. This started when Madam Ghana travelled to the village. I’m not the only one involved. There is another girl who is seven years old, Mr Sunday used to sleep with her too.

“I once told Madam Ghana about it, and she cautioned her husband, but when it continued, I could not do much any longer,” she said.
