The arrest of Isiaka who was nabbed in Ada on Tuesday was made known by the Osun Amotekun Corps Commander, Brigadier General Bashir Adewinmbi while addressing journalists on Thursday in Osogbo.
According to the Adewinmbi, Isiaka was arrested after he lured the minor to an uncompleted building in Ada town, Boripe local government area of the state.

“The operatives swung into action immediately and apprehended the suspect on the spot.
“The suspect admitted that he committed the offence.”
The Osun Amotekun boss explained that the suspect was an ex-convict who had been arrested in the past for stealing and he was jailed for three months.
He said the suspect had been handed over to the police for subsequent interrogation and prosecution.
Adewinmbi also appealed to residents of the state to report any suspicious movement in their area to security agents for prompt action.
