According to Mosiria, the suspect allegedly met women through social media and dating platforms, including Tinder, before inviting them to his short-stay apartment.
He was accused of sexually assaulting some of the women and recording them without their consent. Mosiria further alleged that the man became physically violent when some women refused his advances or demands.
Mosiria said the complaints prompted authorities to work with officers from Parklands Police Station to arrest the Nigerian national.
During the operation, investigators reportedly recovered four laptops, iPads and several mobile phones from the suspect. The electronic devices were confiscated and are expected to assist authorities as they investigate the allegations.
In his statement, Mosiria wrote:
“Last Thursday, I received several complaints concerning a foreign national who had allegedly been reported by different women for sexual assault, recording them without their consent, and allegedly subjecting them to severe physical violence when they refused to comply with his demands.
According to the information we received, the man is a Nigerian national who had been living in the USA and had recently travelled to Kenya. He is alleged to have been targeting women through social media and dating platforms such as Tinder before inviting them to his short-stay apartment.
Working together with police officers from Parklands Police Station, the man was arrested. During the operation, four laptops, iPads and several mobile phones were recovered and confiscated to assist with the ongoing investigations.
As investigations continue, I am appealing to any woman or anyone else who may have been assaulted, sexually abused, threatened, recorded without consent or otherwise victimised by this individual to come forward and report to Parklands Police Station. Your information could be crucial in helping investigators establish the full extent of the allegations and ensure that justice is served.
I also want to caution our young Kenyan women to be extremely careful when meeting people they have connected with through dating apps and social media. Avoid meeting strangers in private apartments or unfamiliar places, especially when you have not known them for long. Always let someone you trust know where you are going, share your location and, where possible, arrange the first meeting in a safe and public place.
Your safety comes first. Never allow anyone to pressure, threaten or force you into anything against your will. Stay vigilant and protect yourselves”
