A 22-year-old commercial tricyclist, Habubakar Umar, has been arrested for allegedly defiling four boys aged between eight and nine in Yola North Local Government Area of Adamawa State.
The Adamawa State Police Command confirmed the arrest on Thursday, stating that Umar, a resident of Rumde Baru, was apprehended on May 14, 2025, following a complaint from the father of two victims.
