Teenager Wants Sexual Harassment Case Against Ogun Commissioner Laid To Rest

A teenager identified as Melojeuekun Barakat Mayowa, who accused the Ogun State Commissioner of Environment, Abiodun Abudu-Balogun of sexual harassment says she wants to drop all charges.

This is as she recorded another video wherein she was seen saying there were misconceptions and misunderstandings between her and the commissioner.

Mayowa’s video is coming few hours after the Ogun State Government announced the suspension of Abudu-Balogun to enable him to cooperate fully with the investigation being carried out by the police.

According to the short video, Mayowa appreciated everyone who has shown supports for the case.

In a dramatic twist, she appealed that the case be allowed to rest.

“I want to use this opportunity to appeal to meaningful Nigerians to please allow this matter to rest,” she said.

AllNews recalls that Mayowa had in a video over the weekend accused the Commissioner of enticing her with money, saying he pressed her breasts and caressed her against her consent.

She also said the suspended Commissioner recited some incantation as he allegedly tried to place his hand on her head.

But, Abudu-Balogun has debunked the allegations, describing it as mere political blackmail.

In the same vein, Adesola Melojuekun, father of Barakat Melojuekun, has come out to say he is no longer interested in the sexual harassment allegation levelled against the Ogun State Commissioner for Environment by his daughter.

“As the father to Melojuekun Barakat, I want to appeal to the public, the international community and the media that I don’t have interest in this matter again.

“I am withdrawing my case and I want them to support me the same way they did in the beginning of this matter,” the father pleaded.

However, the Nigerian police have since commenced an investigation into the case by inviting Abudu-Balogun to Abigi police station in Ogun Waterside Local Government.
