The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Osun State Command, has apprehended a 22-year-old teacher, Ahmad Rufai Akorede, for allegedly molesting a seven-year-old female pupil in Ilesa by thrusting his manhood into her mouth.
The State Commandant, CC Igbalawole Sotiyo, in a statement by the command’s spokesperson, ASC Kehinde Adeleke, said a discreet investigation revealed that the school teacher began molesting the girl in 2024.
According to his confessional statement, when it was closing time, he asked the victim to close all the windows in a classroom and then thrust his manhood into her mouth. He added that the second incident occurred on March 20, 2025, after school hours.
The suspect was arraigned by the NSCDC on Wednesday, March 26, 2025, before the Magistrate Court in Ilesha, where he pleaded not guilty to the one-count charge and was subsequently remanded at the correctional facility in Ilesa. The matter was adjourned for trial.
Similarly, NSCDC operatives arrested Tiamiyu Oluwatobi Samuel, a 20-year-old, on March 26, 2025, for unlawfully having carnal knowledge of a 12-year-old girl in Gbongan, Osun State.
In his confessional statement, he claimed to have known the victim for three years and had asked her to be his girlfriend, but she rejected him. However, on Sunday, March 23, 2025, at around 3:00 PM, when the victim was passing in front of the suspect’s house, he called her with the help of an accomplice.
The suspect threatened the victim with a cutlass and had carnal knowledge of her. Following the incident, the victim began to bleed, and the suspect threatened to kill her if she told anyone.
The suspect has admitted to the offense, and a medical report confirms that the victim’s hymen was broken.
