The police in Plateau State have arrested Chukwudi Boniface, a teacher with Bright Kids Academy, Barkin Ladi Local Government Area of the state, for raping and impregnating a 12-year-old primary three pupil in the school.
It was gathered that the teacher had in December last year organised an extra-mural lesson, which was attended by only four pupils, including the victim.
Boniface, after giving them a class work, told the victim to wait for him in the next classroom with her book, where he met her and forcibly had carnal knowledge of her.
“My teacher called me to come close and held my hands and then he forced me down and removed my cloths and had sex with me. I cried but nobody came to help me. So after he finished, he warned me not to tell anybody and said if I did, he would deal with me severely,” the victim said.
According to Felicia Anselm, the state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), the teacher had been arrested and was in custody for further investigation. “The man has been arrested and investigations are ongoing, and he will be charged to court,” she added.
