Mallam Adamu Ibrahim Umaru, a resident of No. 27 Edem Odo Street in Calabar and a native of Bundugudu Local Government Area, Zamfara State, has been arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting and impregnating his daughter, Amina Adamu Ibrahim.

The investigation was initiated after Amina’s aunt, Aisha, filed a formal complaint, leading to Umaru’s arrest by the Zone Six Human Rights Unit on November 15, 2024. He is currently in police custody, awaiting trial.

According to a statement issued by the Zone Six Police Public Relations Officer (PRO), SP Nelson Okpabi, Umaru denied the allegations during interrogation and was unable to provide an explanation for his daughter’s pregnancy.

He claimed he had been separated from Amina’s mother for several years.

SP Okpabi confirmed that Umaru is scheduled to appear in court tomorrow as the investigation concludes in accordance with the law.

In a related development, Tribune Online reported that Mallam Adamu Ibrahim Umaru, along with 19 others, is also facing trial before Justice Yusuf Halilu in Maitama, Abuja, on five charges, including attempted murder, breach of peace, and assault.

However, Umaru, identified as the 20th defendant in the case, was absent from court proceedings due to a medical report submitted by his lawyer. As a result, Justice Yusuf Halilu adjourned the matter until January 27, 2025, for further hearings.
