30-year-old teacher, Mukaila Abdurrazak, has been arrested by operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), for defiling a 13-year-old pupil in Zamfara State.
The state NSCDC spokesperson, Ikor Oche, who disclosed this said that the suspect, who has been teaching the minor both in school and at home, had been taking advantage of the girl for the past three years.
Oche stated that the suspect confessed to the crime during preliminary investigation and will be charged to court.
The Zamfara NSCDC advised parents to be vigilant and mindful of who they are leaving their children and wards for in the disguise of teaching or otherwise.
