Augustus Oduya

Colonel Augustus Oduya, was an officer working with UNIT in the early 21st century.

456 Incident
In September 2009, he met with civil servant John Frobisher and showed him locations of children who had stopped all over the world and announced suspicions of an alien invasion. He correctly deduced that if UNIT had pieced the situation together, then Torchwood Three also must have.

Oduya reappeared on Day Three, arriving at Downing Street to witness the 456's first contact. Oduya wanted UNIT to be involved in the handling 456 incident.

After John Frobisher killed himself on Day Five, Colonel Oduya was selected to continue negotiations with the 456, and UNIT soldiers entered Floor 13. Oduya asked - not as a representative but as a father - what they will do to the children once they are given to the 456. Upon receiving the reply that the children would essentially be used for drugs, he was clearly horrified. Oduya was present when the the 456 Ambassador was killed and reported this disappearance back to UNIT. (TW: Children of Earth)
