Bauchi Mother Alleges NDLEA Operative Sexually Assaulted Her 8-Year-Old Daughter

A mother in Bauchi State has accused an operative of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency of sexually assaulting her eight-year-old daughter. Her lawyer said the girl was sent to buy sachet water at the suspect's residence when he allegedly lured and assaulted her. The mother reported the case to the Bauchi Police Command on July 5, 2026, and the suspect was arrested. The family’s representatives say the suspect has remained in custody for almost three weeks without being charged. They also allege that some people are trying to influence his release. Police confirmed the arrest and said he would be charged in court soon. The report also refers to legal advice dated July 23, 2023, which appears inconsistent with the stated 2026 timeline.
