Anambra State Ministry of Women Affairs has arrested a 65-year-old man for allegedly defiling a seven-year-old girl who serves him as a house help.

The arrest followed an alarm raised by concerned residents of the town who were thrown aback by the regrettable incident.

The suspect identified as Mr. Frank Ogwu is a pastor and general overseer of Jesus House of Joy Church, Awka.

He is from Imo state but has lived with his wife and children in Anambra for over 30 years.

Confessing the crime, Mr. Ogwu told the ABS that his victim (names withheld) lives with him and his family from where she attends school.

He described his crime as "trial and tribulations in the life of a servant of God" and pleaded for forgiveness from the State.

On her part, the mother of the victim, Mrs. Destiny Ofor from Awka narrated that she is a single mother after her husband abandoned her with their five children.

She said she gave out her daughter Sopuluchukwu Ofor to the wife of the pastor because they stay within the community to enable them to take care of her daughter since the children of the pastor are not in town because of their questionable characters.

According to Mrs. Ofor, her daughter returned home a few days ago and complained that the pastor's daughter was maltreating her while the pastor molested her which made her raise the alarm.

She pleaded for assistance to enable her to conduct a proper medical check on her daughter and as well seek prosecution of the abuser.

At the time of filling this report, officials of the Ministry of Women Affairs have taken over the case for proper documentation, medical checkup of the victim, and prosecution of the suspect.
