The Niger state police command has arrested a 45-year-old primary school teacher identified as Musa Rabo, for allegedly raping a 13-year-old primary school pupil in Minna, Niger State.
According to reports, Rabo lured the teenager into one of the classes at Umaru Farouk Bahago Primary School in Minna, the state capital where he had carnal knowledge of her and also infected her with hepatitis disease.
On getting home, the victim did not inform her parents of the development for fear of being scolded but Rabo’s action was later discovered by her parents.
It was further gathered that the school authority tried to cover up the case when it was reported to the headmaster, but the parents of the victim remained and insisted on justice.
As a first step to affirm her health status, the little girl was taken to the Minna General Hospital for a medical check-up where it was confirmed that she has been infected with hepatitis disease after which the case was then reported to the Niger State Police Command for further interrogation.
Confirming the arrest, the spokesperson of the state police command, DSP Wasiu Abiodun, said the case is under investigation and the suspect has been transferred to SCID Minna for discreet investigation.
