A middle-aged man who happens to be the Personal Assistant to the Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime, narrowly escaped death in the hands of angry teachers for allegedly impregnating a secondary school girl in Enugu, Vanguard reports.
The suspect was beaten to pulp and stripped naked for allegedly impregnating an SS1 student (names withheld) of Metropolitan Girls Secondary School located at Ogui New Layout, Enugu state.It all started when the victim suddenly slumped during morning assembly on Wednesday, bleeding profusely from her private part.
Upon interrogation however, she gave the name of the aide as being responsible for the pregnancy.
The man was lured to the school and he came not knowing that his alleged deed had been discovered.
When he got to the school, the teachers reportedly beat him mercilessly before handing him over to officials of National Agency for Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, NAPTIP, and Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps, NSCDC.
State Commissioner for Education, Professor Uche Okolo confirmed the incident saying, “A man was apprehended. The man defiled a girl. The girl got pregnant. The child was bleeding and rushed to hospital. The school made a report to NAPTIP. The man came to the school to take the girl and he was arrested. The good thing is that he has been apprehended. He should go and face the law.”
