According to a police statement in Ado Ekiti, yesterday, Ajayi allegedly committed the offence inside his office, and one of the staff in the school had reported the matter to the police after suspecting the movement of the young girl (names withheld) inside the vice principal’s office.
According to the police PRO, Victor Babayemi, “the witness became apprehensive when the student, after spending a considerable time in the VP’s office, did not come out.
“The witness went near the door and discovered it was bolted from behind, she knocked and the movements, sounds and subsequent demeanor of both the suspect and the victim gave them away.”
