IKEJA, Lagos, Nigeria – Mr. Adegboyega Adenekan, a Supervisor at the Primary School section of Chrisland School, Lekki today denied allegation of sexually defiling a 2 year old pupil of the nursery section of the school in November 2016.
Adenekan Adegboyega who was being led in evidence in his defence by Olatunde Adejuyigbe(SAN) described the allegation as false and shocking. Adegboyega Adenekan who said he lives at No. 1 Adegboyega Adenekan Close, Matogun in Ogun State told the court when exactly the matter began.
Narrating his ordeal, he said it was in November 11, 2016, when he received a call from the mother who alleged on phone that he sexually abused his two year old daughter, who was then a pupil in school.
“When I answered her call, she said, Mr. Adenekan, You sexually abused my 2 year old daughter”. My reply was why, where and when and she said, this is between me and you, please do not tell anybody. She then dropped the phone and thereafter sent me a text which I still had on my phone that ” I want you to still be very close to my daughter”, he said.
Adegboyega Adenekan said he was later bombarded with phone calls from his colleagues in school, namely G.I Asike Head Teacher of the Primary School section, also Mrs. Modibe Head Teacher, Nursery and Mrs. Bayo Olugbonga to whom the mother reported the case. Before them, I denied the allegation, he said.
Adeboyega Adenekan told the court that November 12, 2016, G. I Asike Head Teacher of the school called a meeting with the mother whom he said told all in the meeting that a test conducted on the 2 year old girl at Heritage Clinic in Ajah confirmed a case of sexual abuse.
He told the court thereafter that Chrisland School offered to do a comfirmatory test in the school hospital but that the mother of the two year old girl(names withheld) objected but later consented to after getting in touch with her husband. He told the court that while he was waiting for the test, the mother brought up the idea of conducting a poligraph test(lie detector test).
“I told them that I am willing to make myself available for any test to prove my innocence”, he told the court. More to come later.
