The Oyo State Police Command has arrested a teacher, Olayinka Folarin, for allegedly raping three schoolgirls.
Until his arrest, Folarin worked at Calvary Heritage Kiddies Castle, Oluyole Estate in Ibadan.
The girls, whose ages ranged between 10 and 11, were pupils of the school. Folarin was alleged to have tricked the pupils into having sexual affair with him since 2013, until he was caught in the act.
Two of the pupils were said to be orphans living in His Heritage Home, a non-governmental organisation with link to the school they attended. They were said to have been living there since they were two years.
It was alleged that the teacher, who is a father of four, had been using the school toilet as the venue for his indecent act. To cover his tracks, he was said to have repeatedly threatened his victims with punishment and death. Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Olabisi Ilobanafor, confirmed the arrest, adding that the suspect had confessed to the crime and would be charged to court.
She said, “It is pathetic and quite unfortunate. This happened in a school and it has been happening for months undetected.
“The teacher has been sleeping with the victims in the school toilet. He has been sleeping with the girls every week since 2013. When the matter was reported to us, the police investigated it and discovered that he has a gel he used in lubricating the girls. The gel has been recovered from where he kept it in the school premises.
“He has been arrested and he will be charged to court, but he is still assisting us with our investigation because there is the need for us to know if there are other girls that he has been defiling apart from these girls. He threatened to kill them and one of the girls said she was afraid that the suspect could kill her physically or spiritually. She was not happy that she was being molested, but she could not tell anybody. Parents should try and get close to their children.”
A medical checkup, which was carried out on the victims at the Adeoyo State Hospital by one Dr. Ariwoola, revealed that the girls’ hymens were not intact. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
