The Oyo State Police Command on Wednesday arrested a 20-year-old primary school teacher, named ‘Collins Obi’, for raping a 10-year-old boy in Ibadan.
The teacher committed sodomy on November 5, 2016, explaining that apart from teaching in the school where the victim attended, he was also the boy’s personal teacher. The state Police Public Relations Officer, Adekunle Ajisebutu, said.
Ajisebutu said, “The 20-year-old primary schoolteacher was arrested for having anal intercourse with a 10-year-old boy. The suspect, who was also a personal teacher of the victim, committed the unlawful act on November 5, 2016.
“He lured the little boy to a house in the Asaka Itamaya area of Ibadan where the offence was committed.”
Ajisebutu said the arrest of the suspect was made possible after the victim’s mother alerted the police at the Iyaganku Police Station, Ibadan. He added that the victim would be charged to court immediately on the order of the state Commissioner of Police, Samuel Adegbuyi.
