The Ogun State Police Command says TikToker Abigeal “Mirabel” Nsikak, who was in its custody after a rape allegation, has been released to the state Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development.

‎The state police public relations officer, DSP Oluseyi Babaseyi, in a statement on Wednesday, said the development followed consideration of her welfare and support needs.

In consideration of her welfare and support needs, she has been released to the Ogun State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Development.

“The ministry has undertaken responsibility for her care and has assured the command that she will be made available whenever required as investigations continue,” Mr Babaseyi said.
