“It is stupidity that led me to sexually harass the little girl. If I will be given a second chance, I must surely be a good person. Police and the parents of the girl should have mercy and consider what happened as an act of the devil.

I am the Personal Assistant to my pastor; we were organizing our crusade, going out to paste crusade posters when my pastor called me to say he forgot something at home.

He directed me to go to his house and bring some money. When I got there, I saw children playing and grabbed one of them. That was what happened."

"It is purely the handiwork of the devil. I don’t know what happened; all I know is that I am not happy with what is happening to me.

I am calling on the parents and the police to have mercy on me. I am promising the government and the parents that if they allow me to go free, I will never misbehave again.”
