Federal college official in trouble for allegedly raping student

A store officer at the Federal Science and Technical College , Otukpo, Benue State, has been suspended for allegedly raping a 16-year-old female student of the school.

Some female students had in March reported that the girl sneaked out of the hostel at night and was seen being dropped the following morning by Mr Esly. They suspected she was into a sexual relationship with the store officer and that she had passed the night with him at his official quarters. Sources at the school, including students and teachers, told PREMIUM TIMES that Mr Esly had a habit of using his access to food in the school’s store to lure female students into immoral relationships. Many students told our reporter of alleged sexual advances made to them by the store officer.

“I am a civil servant; I can’t talk to the press. I don’t have anything to say. What happened was an internal affair; I don’t know why it got to PREMIUM TIMES. I don’t know what they are talking about.” However, after PREMIUM TIMES formally wrote the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, over the matter, Mr Goong told this reporter that the ministry’s permanent secretary, Sonny Echono, had set up a panel to probe the allegation.

GoddyJames You should never be to busy to raise your children, boarding school is not the answer, better still hire trained housekeepers if you're too busy. Better your kids are close to you than in a far away 'prison' at least you can see any change on time.. Boarding schools are dangerous
