A
57-year-old Vice-Principal of St. Mary Girls College, Ikole Ekiti, in Ekiti
State, Mr. Ayo Ajayi, has been arrested by the police for allegedly defiling a
12-year-old pupil of the school inside his office.
The
bubble burst for the vice-principal on Tuesday, March 18, when the pupil had
gone into his office but did not come out as quickly as expected, thereby,
fuelling suspicion among the teachers that all was not well.
One of
the teachers, who reported the case to the police, was said to have moved
closer to the door leading to Mr. Ajayi’s office to open it but discovered that
it had been locked from inside.
She was said to have knocked on the door frantically, which made
the pupil and the suspect to allegedly quickly stop what they were busy doing
inside.
However,
what would eventually give a hint of what transpired inside the office behind
closed doors was the demeanour of the VP and the pupil, forcing one of the
teachers to report the case to the police.
