From Vanguard;
A middle-aged man who narrowly escaped death in the hands of
angry teachers for allegedly impregnating a secondary school girl was on
Wednesday confirmed to be a Personal Assistant to the Enugu State Governor,
Sullivan Chime.
Vanguard gathered that the true identity of the man
(names withheld) was found in his Kia car impounded by the angry teachers. The
car was still lying at the premises of Metropolitan Girls Secondary School located
at Ogui New layout Enugu as at the time of this report along with his Permanent
Voters Card (PVC) and other documents found in the car.
However, indication were rife that the powers that-be have
intervened and directed the officials of National Agency for Prohibition of
Trafficking in Persons (NAPTIP) presently handling the investigation to soft
pedal.
When our reporter visited the Enugu zonal office of NAPTIP
located at GRA in Enugu yesterday afternoon, a top female official of the
command who refused to disclose her identity said, “we don’t comment on cases
being investigated, so no comment”.
The suspect who was earlier mistaken for a local contractor
was beaten to pulp and stripped naked for allegedly impregnating an SS1 student
of the school (names withheld).
The cat was let out of the bag when the victim suddenly
slumped on the ground during morning assembly on that fateful Wednesday
bleeding profusely. She later named the man responsible for the pregnancy.
He was therefore lured to the school where he was mobbed.
State Commissioner for Education, Professor Uche Okolo who
earlier confirmed the incident told reporters that “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”, he added.
