Ogun State Government has suspended the Commissioner for Environment, Abiodun Abudu-Balogun, in the middle of investigation into an allegation of sexual harassment of a 16-year old girl, Barakat Mayowa Melojuekun.

The Ogun State Police Command confirmed that the case has been transferred to the state Criminal Investigation Department as of Monday.
A 16-year-old girl from Ogun Waterside, Barakat Melojuekun on Saturday accused the Ogun Commissioner for Environment, Abudu-Balogun of sexually harassing her in his house. The allegations brought about the suspension of the Commissioner by the Dapo Abiodun-led Ogun State Government on Sunday. Despite the fact that the father of the teenager, Adesola Melojuekun said he was withdrawing the case, the police in Ogun State said the issue is still under investigation. “We are still investigating the sexual harassment allegation involving the Ogun State Commissioner for Environment and the case has been transferred to the state CID.“Whether the girl and her father are interested in the case is not our own business. It is not their own prerogative to say they are not interested.“The father has no right to withdraw the case because he is not the direct victim.“The victim herself is not capable of withdrawing the case. Either they are interested or not, the police must get to the root of the matter,” police spokesman stated emphatically.
