The state’s Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency confirmed the development on its official X account, adding that the ongoing court case would resume on 4 September.In a telephone conversation with PREMIUM TIMES Thursday, Mrs Olusola said the four-year-old girl had gone through a couple of therapy sessions and is likely to go back to school.
“We have been on the case which is still in court. As expected, the guy has been pleading not guilty but he is still remanded in Kirikiri,” she said. “We have not heard anything from the school till now, they are yet to reach out to the family because they are obviously still in denial.”When PREMIUM TIMES contacted the school, only one of the three mobile numbers on their official website connected but no one answered the call.“The matter is already being investigated by the police, so we wouldn’t be able to discuss it. Thank you,” the official said and ended the call.
“She cried about her vagina pains when she went to urinate on Sunday, 30 April; then we saw bruises when we checked with a torch light. This prompted us to take her to the hospital,” Mrs Olusola narrated.
