The Commissioner of Police, Delta State Command, CP Aina Adesola, has led a strategic visit to Ozoro, Isoko North Local Government Area, following the alleged incidents of sexual assault in the community.
During the visit, CP Adesola met with the traditional ruler, stakeholders, and victims, reaffirming the Command’s zero-tolerance stance on sexual and gender-based violence.
He described the incident as an embarrassment to the LGA, State, and country, assuring that the Command will not relent until all those involved are arrested and prosecuted.
The traditional ruler, HRM Barr. Anthony Uvietobore Ogbogbo, condemned the incident, thanking the CP for his swift response.
The Chairman of Isoko North LGA, Hon. Godwin Ogorugba, clarified that there is no “rape festival” in Ozoro, but a cultural event mismanaged by criminal elements.
The Police Command has maintained an active Gender Desk for handling such cases and encourages victims to come forward with assurance of confidentiality.
